The issue i see is that Python doesn't have declarations. So you could use
the name, a in multiple places. what would this mean:

a = 34

global a = 0

would it mean that the first a was loca, and the second local? or would it
be illegal -- glob could only be used on the first invocation? or ??

and frankly, global (should have)  limited use anyway -- making it a bit
easier to use seems not very helpful.
