Section 9.7.5 is not entirely clear on whether certain
things should be included in the implicit event_expression
list. One case that seems uncertain is variables appearing
in delay controls. See my comments in

http://boydtechinc.com/etf/archive/etf_2002/0012.html

Also, a repeat count on an event control on an
intra-assignment delay is really part of the event control.
Should it be included?

My opinion is that delay controls and repeat-event-controls
should be listed with wait and event controls as exceptions
that do not get included in the implicit event_expression
list. These could be listed in terms of the grammar as
wait or delay_or_event_control expressions.
