This looks better than the current design.
When porting code to D from other languages you need to add something like a 
@globals attribute, but this seems an acceptable price to pay.

Time ago I have suggested an attribute to regulate the usage of global (outer) 
names inside functions; the weak purity seems an "extreme" version of it.
