I've been checking for already-computed alternatives to this visitor. Seeing it
gives you a "this has to be already computed somewhere", and there are liveness
checks throughout Rust that are near what we need, but it seems that there isn't
anywhere that we can check to traverse through all uses of a local.

Quite sad.

What would happen if we were to do something like this:

let x;
{
    x = xxx.into_iter();
    for i in x.clone();
}

If I'm not wrong, the code that comes before this, only looks at the current
scope, first looking for the initializing local, and then assigning that to
some iterable.

Testing that, it seems that the x = part is a Path with a Def of Local, could
you also take that into acccount?

You're correct. The code will also check assignment to a local now.
