I should probably mention that I am not stating an opinion against the 
ability to assign to the variables.  If it makes sense and doesn't hurt 
anything then ok.

I'm simply against adding a feature to support some broken technique that we 
shouldn't be using anyway.  If there are other motivations, then I have no 
issue with it.
