I used to do a lot of Pascal, and I was too fond of 'with'. So when I
look at that code today, I struggle to identify the scope of field
references, especially when these 'with' statements are nested.

It was a little better in VB, where the field references always had a
prepended period.

One of the great things about Lua is that symbol lookup rules are very
straightforward....
