With the module proposal the 'global' namespace does not have to == the runtime namespace (i.e., _root for SWF, window for DHTML). Given that, should the global namespace (from the point of view of the LZX app) be the canvas? Is there a benefit to having a global namespace and the canvas in the global namespace, or did that just fall out of the initial implementation?
