We are discussing a new scooping rule of a `for` block. This automatically applies to `let` block unless @jeff.bezanson changes mind (unlikely, I think; see his explanation on why it’s preferable: [Another possible solution to the global scope debacle - #194 by jeff.bezanson](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/another-possible-solution-to-the-global-scope-debacle/15894/194)). For non-1.0 scoping rule for `for` and `let`, IEFE and `let` may be different.
