I should also say that I am not looking for a quick-fix for some
specific script that I am writing.  This is more of a "blue-sky" topic,
where I am thinking that maybe some future version of ruby could
introduce a new feature for these situations.

I think the kind of solution that I'm looking for would require a change
to ruby itself.  However, I also realize that I may have missed some
features which are already in ruby, and which already do exactly what
I want.
