No, the _usage_ will always look like magic. It will magically use and
modify
var from the local context. No other C construct does that.

This is (one of) the problem with macros. It's best if their usage is not
very different then a regular C construct. Principle of least surprise and
all that.

Because it makes is clear what is going on there.
