My proposal doesn't block it.

The pragma in Ada has three levels - function, block, statement. I propose
(in this moment) just statement level syntax, but I am sure, so other
levels are possible.

I would to have a autonomous functions or autonomous blocks too, and Ada
syntax (same with PL/SQL) is good.
