Comment (by mmezzarobba):
Replying to [comment:3 nbruin]:
> I suspect that Zimmerman's calculus book uses this stuff quite
extensively, so deprecating/changing the current behaviour will likely
lead to pushback from him, and probably rightly so.
I'm not sure about `function()` and have little time to check now, but
regarding `var()`, I think we tried to always use `x = SR.var('x')`.
And IMO, the version of `var` that injects a variable in the global
namespace should simply be deprecated, or possibly moved to
`sage.ext.inteactive_constructors_c` if someone really care about it.
