I have need of that feature to simplify scope handling (one scope-one
object, sharing some global scope variables, but restricting one scope to
create variables only in its own space). This is simple feature to
implement, so I guessed that there is a override. No matter, I will do it on
a hard way....  Thnx for your time!
