I wasn't entirely sure where to put them. They're clearly acl-related,
but at a slightly more abstract level, and I think less acl-related
than local_scan, hence their position. I'm open to other ideas.

Yes :-) I avoided them because there aren't really any obvious rules to
apply because they're sufficiently different from other languages. I'd
like some guide as to how to space out expansions and where to put line
breaks, especially in complicated conditionals and lookups. Lispish?
Tclish?
