Yay!

However, setting `byte-compile-force-lexical-warnings' to t is too
coarse. For example, Tramp's macro `with-parsed-tramp-file-name'
let-binds several variables "just in case". They are reported as unused
then, on every invocation of that macro.

Is there a way to tell the byte compiler, that these unused declarations
are intended here? Otherwise, I would be swamped with warnings, and I
won't see the real warnings I should care.
