I've been wondering for some time why there is no support for pure
functional types. Like function int -> int. In most type inference
techniques, there is. I know, side effects. But usually we can tell that
function has no side effects at all, so it would be nice to reduce it to
lambda type, not just remember to enter it's block. It would make some
things much easier.
Anyway: when calling some lambda or local function not all bindings
are clear (depends on context), but we can leave it and got bidings
later and use it normal way (not degenerate return value to some-object,
which happens usually)
