This is more than what you called FLS, since it also involves setting a
new value for each frame, or else falling back to a value provided by a
previous frame.  I would describe that as stack-based, rather than
frame-based.

If you're looking for a this_player() equivalent, there is an example
implementation in the LP 2.4.5 mudlib simulation.  It doesn't use, but
could be done with, thread-local storage.
