Are there any plans to have something similar to Kotlin/JVM
kapt
or clang AST visitors implemented in plugins? I understand it's low priority, just curious if there are any emerging ideas how that would work.

yes, we are considering that as part of general purpose Kotlin compiler plugins API (so shall work in JVM as well)

Wow, that's great insight! Would it allow AST modification during compilation or are you considering it only for introspection, so it would be used for code generation as with annotation processors?
And from no public announcements I assume you don't have any ETA for that, right?
Very excited for this feature in either case!
