I think we should extend the functionality of closures by providing a
way to access the bound variables in them.  Then we won't need to make
Emacs Lisp more complicated with a new data type, because ordinary
closures will do this job too.

Does anyone argue that it is important to distinguish between closures
that permit access and closures that don't permit access?
