[...]

To answer that specific question, the next major version
(issue8) of the standard is currently in draft stage. A draft1
has been released and undergone a review stage now completed.
There is a draft1.1 which can be downloaded from the opengroup
once you create an account, see
https://www.mail-archive.com/austin-group-l@opengroup.org/msg06965.html
for details.

In any case, sh "local" scope won't be included in that version
of the standard. We'll probably need to wait another decade or
so for that.
