I'm still in favor of having a variable_exists('varname') function though.

Actually that looks like what is currently being proposed as exists() -
a swiss-army knife function based on isset() which is called as though
you're examining the value.
Instead of this:
variable_exists($foo): yes (should be yes)
unset($foo);
variable_exists($foo): no (should be no)
variable_exists($bar): no (should be no)
My suggestion (with which I believe Stig was agreeing) is this:
variable_exists('foo'): yes (should be yes)
unset($foo);
variable_exists('foo'): no (should be no)
variable_exists('bar'): no (should be no)
