There's no accepted definition of quotation, or how it should work, nor a
standardization in the latest draft Forth 200x Draft 14.5. There does
appear to be a consensus; the ability to define a nameless word inside a
definition, and retrieve an execution token for EXECUTE. It's seen as a
useful adjunct to :NONAME and ticking named code.

The ability to address locals has not been properly discussed, since it
opens up the issue of the lifetime of the XT vs the lifetime of the
local. The XT can be EXECUTEd or COMPILE,d inside or outside of the
enclosing definition, since Forth doesn't have the concept of scope for
code, only data on the stacks and LOCALs. Therefore any local defined in
the outer definition and used in the quotation can only be addressed
inside the execution scope of the quotation. That limits the quotation
that uses outer local's use; but since there isn't much extant experience
with them, this may or many not be an issue.

Personal experience so far; (1) I don't tend to use locals inside the
quotation and (b) I don't have any use yet for quotations outside the
parent's execution scope.

What is your experience with this?
