I see. What would with-coding-system-for-write look like? What
would functions look like that want to find out which coding system
to use for writing?
Maybe something can be abstracted so that
(with-variable 'coding-system-for-write 'foo
...statements...)
works for all variables. Of course, you might as well call it `let',
then :-)
