This does not seem like a terribly good idea from here.  The main problem
with the syntax is that it's very unclear whether the initializer (if any)
applies to all the variables or just one.  C users will probably think
the latter but your example seems to suggest that you think the former.
I doubt that this adds so much usefulness that it's worth adding confusion
too.
