Excuse me, did you mean "disable shadowing global variables" or "disable
shadowing class members"?
The latter.
If I understand everything correctly, Walter said that "Shadowing
members, it's debatable". His main objection was about initializing
variables in constructor, but we can add syntax sugar for this case.

I think Walter agrees that we can't disallow shadowing globals. Adding
additional sugar is pretty much the kiss of death for the entire notion
of disallowing shadowing of members.
