Comment:

 This has been implemented for `#!optional`, `let-optionals*` and also
 `case-lamdba`.  There might be room for improvement (as always), but for
 now I feel we've done enough; the approach we use even makes manual
 accesses of rest arguments optimisable, depending on the exact pattern
 used, of course.
