Yes, that eventually occurred to me.

Possibly a good idea, but the other shells' behaviour, having an exit trap
only for the shell, already seems to be standard. We would need to treat
it specially as an option. It's a bit of pain because this works
18:34% ksh
$ foo() { trap 'echo exit' EXIT; }
$ foo
$ exit
exit
while most (or maybe all) other traps in ksh are local. That is, at least,
an argument for our way of doing it.
