Description

@abbbe

https://github.com/ethereum/solidity/blob/develop/docs/control-structures.rst says:

Warning The low-level call, delegatecall and callcode will return success if the calling account is non-existent, as part of the design of EVM. Existence must be checked prior to calling if desired.

It is not clear how calling account can be non-existent. Are we talking about called account here?
