>            Reporter: Dmitri Blinov

> As of now, JEXL allows a script writer to redeclare a local variable during script evaluation.
> {code:java}
> var a = 1; var a = 2;{code}
> This may lead to potential errors with misspelled names and clashed variables. Checking for already defined variable is a common feature of many languages. This feature can be implemented in JEXL as an additional option of JexlFeatures class, enabled by default, thus allowing compatibility with existing code.
