Or within or whereas.  Not really joking either.  Once you realize that 
the current meaning of use has to be kept for use inside program units, 
and for odd upward compatibility cases, and that there is a large 
population of Ada programmers who often write with without use, then the 
  syntactic sugar of the proposal is just that, rather arbitrary syntax 
designed to look nice.  (I could of course suggest syntax that doesn't 
meet that criteria, but why?)
