A better way to apply a attribute to an entire file is to use

Better than an explicit impure (or pure=false) attribute?
I don't think so. It heavily uglyfies the file, as single items
without a specific attribute are interspersed in the file. So the
scope need to end before and start again after the affected
function or test.
An it stops working at all if e.g. one test is impure and another
test is @gc, because then the scopes overlap and can no more be
contained in each other.
Really, having the counter-attributes would improve the language.
