Research direction

Start by reading the earlier discussion in rust-lang/rust#9835 and the linked D scope guard statement. The issue does not identify Rust files, tests, syntax, or a settled proposal, so first determine the intended language design and RFC scope. Done would require an agreed specification for scope guards rather than a directly specified code change.
