I'd agree with Gavin - a good candidate for syntactical sugar, since
it's a common operation with well-defined semantics.  Easier to type
and read, and encourages use of local aliases. One of those things
which are hard to macro-ize, since look-ahead is not a strong point of
the token filter patch.
