I'm not certain.  My recollection of the previous discussion is that the
entire manual must be revised to relate lexical binding to the complete
novice, without sacrificing the clarity or simplicity of the text in the
process.  The latter is a real pickle, for its original author has since
left us, and no other technical writers of his stature remain at our
disposal.
