  …especially when one considers that, without a precise factual context, appellate courts cannot meaningfully review for harmless error. Id. Our cases have adhered to the Luce model. In United States v. Griffin, 818 F. 2d 97 (1st Cir.), cert. denied, 484 U.S. 844, 108 S.Ct. 137, 98 L.Ed.2d 94 (1987), defense counsel was forewarned that, if he embarked on a certain line of cross-examination, the prosecution would be permitted to use “threat” evidence in rebuttal.
