I would, except that I'm unsure of exactly what is needed in said design. Are we just trying to nail down the exact semantics of 'scope'? Or are we looking at implementational issues (possible compiler performance hits)? Or both? Or something else altogether? Do we need to account for (what little exists of) the current implementation? Speaking of which, what *is* the current extent of the implementation of 'scope'? I assume it isn't just a no-op, since I see it applied to delegate parameters every now and then?
