(typo correction).
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I admit that my goals are
significantly less ambitious compared with what you described (lexical
scope, etc.). I do not think that it's possible to stretch my proposal to
meet all the use cases you describe. For me, the 'errfail' is similar to
'pipefail' option - practical solution for real problems. The suggested
'errfail' in opt-in - anyone that want the old way (errexit) can use it,
without saying anything. As you said, errexit was not 'good' solution when
conceived, no point in trying to match it (IHMO).
