So I was thinking of some sort of syntax like this:

Thoughts on this sort of feature?

I'd prefer a new variant of `with`:

----
with (int i = someFunc()) if (i >= 0)
{
    // use i
}
----

It's slightly more verbose, but the meaning is clearer (arguable). It extends automatically to other control structures like `switch`.

I wouldn't have this new `with (declaration)` have the magic lookup rules of the existing `with (expression)`. It would be a simpler tool that I'd probably use more than the existing `with`.
