I was thinking about the fact that some packages in Emacs save their state
in global variables and thus can't be used more than once in any invocation
of Emacs.

One solution would be to have a function that made all the variables in a
buffer be local variables. I have no idea how this could be implemented or
if there are disastrous side-effects I'm not considering.

Any ideas?
