Description
We can mark them with an argument, as well as a flow marker (arrow from one frame to the other).
We may need to special-case this for OCaml-only, depending on how this interacts with other languages.

Research direction
No file or test is named. Start by tracing how magic-trace represents jumps between frames and how language-specific handling is selected; define the argument and flow marker for jumps into other functions, then verify whether OCaml-only special-casing is required.
