Python scope is too complicated

I presume you read "4.1 Naming and binding" from Python reference manual.

"What constitutes a block" is answered in paragraph 2, for example.  Please come
back with confusing / missing information in that chapter giving us a chance to
improve the documentation.

Cheers!
