While this is "not a bug" (as our bug tracker can regularly attest), it's rather unexpected, and we could easily avoid it... Regards, Nikita This seems like a good opportunity to go one step further and have loops create a new scope, which would automagically handle the unwrapping with out worrying about the edge cases. Obviously, this would be a bigger BC break, but one worth considering. Trevor
