+1. I love this proposal.
It's two less bytes than OP_EVAL even.
It allows static analysis.
It doesn't require any change to the script interpreter. (You can do a
static replacement step between parsing and execution.)
It allows all urgent use cases.
It doesn't consume a NOP. If we ever want recursion or something else,
we can still add OP_EVAL,... then.

I disagree. If people actually do mean HASH160 <hash> EQUAL, let *them*
add a NOP. Or better to avoid NOP let them use HASH160 <hash>
EQUALVERIFY 1. Point is, if you don't want code replacement you can
easily break the pattern. But code replacement will be overwhelmingly
more common, so it should be as small as possible. Every byte matters.
