I know this is very similar to the "global.x =" syntax, which
was already shot down?, but wouldn't allowing access to a
functions locals from within, by prefixing the name, be a good
way to disambiguate what happens (instead of any operator to
indicate outer scope, like .x = 3 or the like)? I guess this
necessitates "global.x =" as well, though.
def foo():
def bar():
foo.x = 3
print x # prints 3
I seem to recall that this syntax has been proposed before,
though not in this discussion. But my memory is murky.
