I don't think that covers what Mikhail is suggesting - I think Mikhail
wants to extend the special treatment of id-expressions to any
sub-expression in a return statement (not just for the case where the
expression is a single id-expression).

Oh, I see. No, that's not sound.
T f(std::vector<int> v, int n) {
int *p = find(v, n);
return g(p, v); // bad things might happen if 'v' is moved into 'g'.

Mikhail's original post restricted this with "[...] and occurs only once".
But anyhow, I don't like this proposal, because it's anti-intuitive (the
semantics of the same expression varies depends on the times it
appears in a scope).

It can be argued whether the "only once" applied to the uses of the same
name in the 'return' or whether it applies to any other uses of the
variable in the function. Richard's example uses 'v' only "once" in the
return statement.
Although to be honest, what is the issue with the code in Richard's
example? The vector contents being moved won't invalidate the pointer
(unless the iterator does not propagate and it *copies* and the "valid
unspecified state" of the moved from container is to 'clear()' it...)

That depends on what 'g' does with its vector. The problem is that this
shortens the effective lifetime of v's value, and there may be local
variables or other subexpressions that depend on 'v' having its full
lifetime.
FWIW, this is a problem even with the relaxations that DR1579 introduced,
but it's a bit harder to see because you need to be in a destructor to
observe it:
struct StringyThing { StringyThing(std::string); };
StringyThing f() {
std::string blah;
auto _ =3D scope_guard([&] { std::cout << blah << std::endl; });
// fill in blah
return blah;
}
Without DR1579, this will print the computed value of 'blah'. With DR1579,
it could print anything ('blah' is in a valid but unspecified state). The
same problem usually doesn't occur under the C++11 rules in practice,
because in most cases where the copy is promoted to a move, the move is
elided.

But anyhow, I don't like this proposal, because it's anti-intuitive=
(the<br>
semantics of the same expression varies depends on the times it<br>

OK, my last effort for defence. Obviously,
in certain cases there can be a difference between
*return g(n,v);*
and
*auto x = g(n,v);*
*return x;*
But my point is it can be beneficial.
