One question: How does this differ from any other semi-concatenative
language's support for "local variables"?

Okay, one OTHER question: have you looked at Factor's support for the
spread/cleave combinator set? They aren't the end-all solution (the many
variants are annoying), but they've eliminated almost all stack juggling
from Factor's library in favor of a notation which cleanly expresses
intent.
