Would it be possible to extend current with statement's expressiveness by two lowerings:

1) Alias expression/symbol and replace in macro fashion:

with (a : exprA) { /* use a. will be replaced by exprA by compiler. */ } 2) Accept a list of arguments: with (a, b : expr , ...) {} gets lowered to

   with (a) with (b : expr) ... {}

This looks useful, and should be easy to implement. +1 from me.
