Consider:

```
struct S { int x; };
const int* f(const int* p) { return p; }
int g() {
  return *f(&((const S&)S{2}).x);
}
```

The lifetime should last to the end of the full-expression.  Scanning the argument types clearly won't catch this.  Scanning the arguments is probably possible, but maybe tricky to get right.
