Unless you are abusing classes I don't think so.


Speaking of...

<code>
class NameSpace(object):
    def __init__(self, globals):
        self.globals = globals
        self.current_keys = list(globals.keys())
    def __enter__(self):
        return self
    def __exit__(self, *args):
        new_items = []
        for key, value in self.globals.items():
            if key not in self.current_keys and value is not self:
                new_items.append((key, value))
        for key, value in new_items:
            setattr(self, key, value)
            del self.globals[key]

if __name__ == '__main__':
    with NameSpace(globals()) as a:
        def function():
            print('inside a!')
    with NameSpace(globals()) as b:
        def function():
            print('inside b!')

    a.function()
    b.function()
    print(vars())
</code>

The NameSpace objects do *not* get their own copy of globals(), but for functions, etc., it should work fine. As a bonus the above code works for both 2.x and 3.x.
