+1 for getting this fixed. At least the bindTo() behaviour is crazy.

I'm hitting this all the time. Very annoying.

I understand why the original Closure has static scope.

But if I'm using bindTo(), I'm explicitly saying I WANT the closure to have object scope
now, The restriction seems arbitrary.

What's the point of providing a bindTo() function if it's not for binding a
closure to what the developper needs to bind it to ?

Without any solid argument, it's clearly a BUGS !

This behavior is counter-intuitive and I doubt there's a single other language that has such a
similar artificial constraint. PLease reconsider fixing this, or at least allow us to contribute a
patch to this.
