I also want to ask how to implement the nest scope using Scriptable/Context
or any other class.

Suppose we have two scopes A and B, and B is within A. The structure of A and B
are as following:

Scope A:  // Sciptable object is:  scopeA
    var  a1 = 1;

    Scope B:  //Scriptable object is: scopeB
	var a2 = 1;
	a1 = 2;   // assign new value to A.a1

At Scope B, we may easily set the value for new variable "a2".  But the 
question is how to assign the value for "a1". We can not use EvaluateString 
directly with scopeB as starting point. "a1" may be a simple varaible, but may 
be object member/property or array item. 

Your help is greatly appreciated.
