Oh, of course it is not a great plan … but in the end I have users that
try to do exactly these kind of things. Forcing them to use savebox or
similar is quite cumbersome and this is a command structure that is
easy to teach to users even if it can break in really odd ways (e.g. if
the opening braces is missing).
