    No, only in calc2.  The point is that it can now disambiguate when you
    have separate variables, like you do in calc2.  In calc1, what you
    have are different *fields* of the same variable and that isn't what
    is tracked.

Do you have any plans to do anything about tracking the fields too? 
Or it's not considered to be worth the effort?
