The example I can think of multiple calling environments involves
nested calling environments where the inner modules do not necessarily
know how many parent calling environments exist.

But there the choice of calling environment is determined
automatically, and you would probably not think about picking one.

Another example would, I guess, be "objects" but I'm not sure we want
to reinvent those?
