Informal basic examples:
&data would be the address of a constant pool entry holding the value of data
&this would be the address of a constant pool entry holding the value of this
&label would be the address of a constant pool entry holding the value of the address of :label.
&@1 would be the address of a constant pool entry holding the value of the address of this statement list's first stack cell.

Bonus:
Let &(3 + &@1) be the address of a constant pool entry holding the value of 3 more than the address of this statement list's first stack cell.

There are many interesting possibilities, and raise constant pool management from one of the simplest constructs up to the more complicated deferred pass.
