Some quarter century ago now, I had a dynamic_var<T> template in C++,
with a dynamic_let<T> for the binding.

  dynamic_var<int> dv_foo = 42;

  ...

  {
     dynamic_let<int> foo(dv_foo, 73);
     ...

     // both foo and dv_foo are now 73

  }

  // foo is gone, dv_foo back to 42.

or something like that.
