Summary0000240: Using variable declaration on same line as opening block code, followed by $&, results in terrible block management
DescriptionFor some reason, you cannot declare a variable on the same line as an opening alias block, and then proceed to use $& to concatenate the lines together.
Steps To ReproduceCreate a new line, or a new script file, and type the following:

alias varwhat { var %1 = This, $&
    %2 = Will, $&
    %3 = Not Work
  echo -a %1 %2 %3
}

You will notice that there will be a block indicator around the %3. Sometimes, the block even showed up at the 'echo' statement (if I pushed the var %1 down one line, then backspaced up, it would variably 'block' the echo statement).

Okay, this seems to be the case with doing ANY line modifications to the immediate code block opening:

alias testthis { echo -a This | $&
    echo -a Should | $&
    echo -a Work
}
