This is the only case I would use APPLY for --- passing arguments and refinements from another function. If the block you pass APPLY is not constructed programmatically, then you don't need APPLY at all. But if it is, having everything in the same order as in the function spec is much simpler.

I don't see why having such an APPLY would change this... Anyway, I think Ladidlav's APPLY can be taken as a prototype. Probably, its /N refinement would make everyone happy.
