Agreed.

This probably wasn't enough detail for Jeremy to act on, but was enough for
me to complete channeling you <wink>. The tail end of the msg to which you
replied was:
+1 on making this ["global x" sometimes] an error now. And
if 2.1 is relaxed to again allow "import *" at function scope
in some cases, either that should at least raise a warning,
or the Ref Man should be changed to say that's a defined use
of the language.
