I would prefer to see a separate statement similar to global that meant "look for the nearest enclosing binding." Rather than specifying that you want to use x from outer, you could only say you don't want x to be local. That means you'd always get intermediate.
Would those "up" bindings chain?
Yes. If a block had an up declaration and it contained a nested block with an up declaration for the same variable, both blocks would refer to an outer binding. Jeremy
