Follow-up Comment #2:

I think this has been known and ignored for a while, but it seems simple
enough to add if it's an important feature to someone.

Does Matlab also change directory to the location of the function file when it
is executed? What's the output for a function /some/path/foo.m


function foo()
disp(pwd);
end


Does it show an error for functions that do require arguments? Do errors occur
in the same context as if the function were just called without run? Can
errors be caught with try or shown with lasterr?
