C'mon!  Most people are still going to just use module globals for
function statics because they're less to type (notwithstanding the
sometimes-optional global decl).  You can't worry about all the novel
abuses people will think up for this feature -- they're already doing
it with all sorts of other things Pythonic, e.g. docstrings, global as
pragma, etc.

Can I get at least a +0? :)
