it makes sense as a convenience tool if used correctly
but can create a hell of a maintenance nightmare if not
Almost as bad as GOTO maintenance wise but without the
benefits in edge cases.
When reading foreign C++ code a lot you learn to love
the explicit nature of PHP naming scopes even though
it is extra typing as it is clear at first sight whether
you are looking at a variable, member variable, function,
object method ...
It is also clear that everything is from a local scope
unless explicitly declared as global within that local
scope ...
Lets do not weaken this concept ...
