I haven't come up with an alternative that's entirely satisfying, but here's one that might be acceptable. Develop an extension to ASSOCIATE in which the can have an optional ": TEAM ( )" if it's a coarray (not a coindexed object). Within the construct, the is a coarray with coindexing in the specified team.
