No, I don't need it right now. But I think we should revisit the issue of frame-local variables post-22.1; as it stands, they are odd and seem a bit half-cooked. For example, without remove-frame-parameter there's no easy way to remove a frame-local binding once created. > However, someone needs to check carefully that it interacts > correctly with the local binding mechanism. Yes. That's why I agree it's better to leave the issue for now, even if there are real (though obscure) bugs. /L/e/k/t/u
