does not invoke any scope rules
I cannot do that. I mean that is totally and utterly beyond my abilities and comprehension. To have any identifier, anywhere, ever, that does not correspond to scope rules is simply not practical, quite impossible, and utterly meaningless.
An "actual paste" would completely mess up line numbers in error messages. In addition, a "second paste" of the same file is guaranteed to trigger compilation errors, like a badly written macro, and I'm strongly opposed to macros, if you want them do your own pre-processing - imnsho, C-based languages get away with macros by simply not providing line numbers on error...
