Actually, it's easier than that generally. The lines from the inner 
scope will be executable in the inner script, and not the outer ones. To 
take the most basic example:

/-- isLineExecutable in __topLevel__ script
| /-- isLineExecutable in function's script
v v
*   var foo = 42;
* * function test() {
   *   var bar = foo * 4;
   *   return bar;
     }

That's how Venkman does it, anyway (and with pretty print, the view is 
only of a single script object anyway, so that's trivial).
