There is no local open because open is entirely syntactic. What you
can do to simulate a local open is this: wrap your code in a module
which is a functor. Provide as arguments the modules you wish to
"locally open". Then you can write in those terms inside your
functor.
Also, be aware that "open" is only scoped to that file in which it
occurs, and you can acheive similar effects with less writing by
splitting your code into separate files.
