BTW, I do wish you could change the label of the scope that arguments went into, so that you could use that label to refer to function parameters. If we allowed that it'd perhaps be the best of both worlds: you'd be guaranteed access to all auto variables and parameters, and that access wouldn't need to be tied to the function name (which can be both painful and error prone).
We can talk about compiler directive.
PRAGMA auto_variables_label(xxxx) -- require function scope only
If we know a list of all auto variables, then it can be on function or block level - it can create aliases.
