I'm wondering here if anyone has thought about writing some code that
attempts to figure out if a given block is changed from the current
implementation to having closure
if that would affect the results of the block evaulation. Going
forward if you turn on forcecompileallblocksasclosure then how would
you know if it would have side-effects or not
in a random method in the base image?
