Ideally, yes. But how many for_each type of macros you see that really try hard
to achieve that? I believe we shouldn't worry right now about this and rely on
the fact that root is the given variable. Or do you have an example of what you
suggested in the other reply, i.e. where it's an evaluation of the heavy call?

This is a bit ugly :-( I would avoid ugliness as long as we have no problem to
solve (see above).
