// SetForScope<> is useful for setting a variable to a new value only within a
// particular scope. An SetForScope<> object changes a variable to its original
// value upon destruction, making it an alternative to writing "var = false;"
// or "var = oldVal;" at all of a block's exit points.
//
// This should be obvious, but note that an SetForScope<> instance should have a
// shorter lifetime than its scopedVariable, to prevent invalid memory writes
// when the SetForScope<> object is destroyed.
