283: NO

While I welcome the attempt to address the issues
raised in Tcl Bug 1436096, this proposal solves those
issues by exposing TCL_EVAL_INVOKE style command
dispatch to scripts not really prepared for all that implies.
The attempts to finish the implementation patch have exposed
these problems.

We ought to be exploding/cleaning up/eliminating semi-magical
internals stuff like TCL_EVAL_INVOKE, not letting them loose
on script programmers.

A revised proposal that addressed the same problems but
in a cleaner way with more thorough testing I believe I could
support.  This just doesn't seem ready yet.  I'm not confident
we've even discovered all the potential difficulties yet.
