Actually, I interpret this comment by Guy Steele to
affirm my position, except for one small detail:

It wasn't (as I implied) that no way was found to do this
connection, but the way he (Guy Steele) had implemented had
some disadvantages that the users didn't want to accept,
back then.

Even Guy Steele seems to believe in a chance to eventually
"... restoring full-blown support for closures in the future."
even for his implementation, where I only speculated about
*some future* implementation.

PS: full blown support for closures means direct support,
not just with help of explicit "containers/wrappers".
