Hi Robert,

Just to note, the quoted text you attributed to me was not something
which I said. I believe it was Troy.

Not really at odds. Within the local statement, the equal holds
always since only string or number can be on the right side. In the
latter case, it would be an operator which can have any expression on
the right.

In terms of implementation, the former is fairly trivial but the
latter would require quite a big change in the parser logic, me
thinks.
