Thank you for pointing this out. Nikita was referring to side-effects of 
capturing too much variables, and suggested to make the capture analysis 
behavior explicitly unspecified in the RFC so that it could be changed 
(optimized) later.

The new version of the RFC does the optimization.

Following your comment, I have clarified a few things in the "Auto-capture 
semantics" section. This includes a list of way in which these effects can be 
observed. These are really marginal cases that are not relevant for most 
programs.

Cheers
