There's nothing more annoying than having to introduce intermediate bindings when you're going to immediate pattern match against it immediately and never use it again. It's both annoying to have to think of a variable name that makes sense and is not in scope or will be in scope, and annoying to type it out, and it's just ugly. This is *not* a special-case, it happens all the time and it's one of the few things in the syntax I wish could be updated.
I vote yes, yes, and double yes!
I wholly agree with Christopher and for the same reason, +1. Thanks, -- Felipe.
