Let's not add another special case for the declaration can be used here 
instead of an expression. This is already the case in if and it will 
proliferate.

The real need here is to allow variable declaration to be used as 
expressions. And functions too as they are first class citizens now.

This reduces special cases instead of adding new one, and give a much 
greater opportunity for expressiveness in the language.
