[Zpt] What is the behavior here?

I don't find it a problem -- you can always use the keyword explicitly.

I see no problem with "global" -- this is only used when *defining* a
variable.  There's now no explicit way to reference a global that's
hidden by a local -- that's fine with me!  (The template designer did
this to itself.)
