Lost cause, IMO. Automatic capture of arbitrary identifiers, while it seems useful at first glance, leads to all sorts of problems down the road. Consider, for example, what happens if a typo made it capture something in an outer or global scope, for example. Or if `i` and `args` happen to be defined with the wrong types. Or if somebody modified the mixin to capture something *other* than what you expected it to capture (i.e., encapsulation breakage). If you work through these unwanted cases, you eventually have to conclude that explicitly passing them as arguments is globally superior, in spite of being locally more inconvenient.
