It all depends on what you want to do. Macros are already recognized
and 'un-preprocessed' for code cross-referencing, but there is a lot
more that could be done to treat macros as first-class citizens in
the abstract syntax tree.
There are a number of issues that I hope to be able to sort out when
officially switching to wave.
