Currently "{args -> expr}" has its own scope.
:echo {-> execute("let a = 1")}()
:echo a
E121: Undefined variable: a
E15: Invalid expression: a
BTW, because of its own scope, the following code doesn't work:
let list = [ /* some data */ ]
let l:threshold = 10
filter(list, {idx, val -> val > l:threshold})
As ZyX pointed out, function() can be used (but redundant):
filter(list, function({th, idx, val -> val > th}, [l:threshold]))
Closure might be useful for this, but it would be the next step.
