Sometimes it is necessary to enable "Critical" for a function, but not the whole thread. Currently there seems to be no way to determine the previous Critical setting so that the function can restore it before returning.

I suggest the introduction of a new built-in variable: A_IsCritical.

Similarly, A_IsPaused would be useful, though we already have a decent script alternative.

And, how would one check for a script being paused from within the script its self? Or are you talking about another script monetring some other script?

A_IsPaused would correspond to global_struct.UnderlyingThreadIsPaused. i.e. It would indicate whether the underlying thread is paused, not whether the script is currently paused. (If you press a hotkey when the script is paused, it will unpause, execute the hotkey, then pause again.)

i agree
