This ticket captures a decision made on the developer mailing list on Oct 12 
(see email thread "Questions about variable scope").

In Puppet version 2.7, a deprecation warning should be issued whenever a 
variable reference takes place or a resource default is applied as a result of 
dynamic scoping.

Dynamic scoping means that variables and resource defaults defined in class A 
also take effect in classes that A includes.  The warning should advise users 
that this feature will be removed in a future version of Puppet, so they should 
start using other puppet features (such as parameterized classes) to achieve 
the desired effect.
