Uses/using clause blocks

In Jade we are often assigning values in bulk.

Quite a few languages allow the developer to shortcut placing in the reference name each time making it not only quicker but it lowers the risk of putting in the wrong reference name. Which can easily happen after a long method and IntelliSense picking up the wrong reference with your accidental typo.

Is it possible to allow jade to use the uses/using clause? I would suggest to use it in blocks within a method to avoid the developer not knowing what uses are set up. e.g.

uses googleSpyAccount
accountNumber := generateAccountNumber();
dob := customerTracker.dob;
bloodType := medicalTracker.bloodType;
netWealth := hackedBankingAccountCollection.calculateWealth();
...
enduses;
