In something like C++ you could create a scope like so:
{
// Do something neat here
}
I was wondering about having or maybe even requiring a scope keyword, which might look like this:
scope
{
// Do something neat here
}
This seems even more relevant in an indentation sensitive language like python:
scope:
pass
Interested to hear any opinions, TIA.

In that case managed languages like python and java combine that functionality with try blocks. This is generally called try with resources.
C# has the using keyword that just uses local scope.
The commonality between them is declaring which resource is managed, not just everything is a scope. Imagine you wanted to manage one resource and return another.
