Hmm ... I've never seen anyone introducing ${^_globals} in his code.

Probably because it's much easier and clearer to just use a namespace for $MyApp::globals ...

But well this might be useful for machine translations, that's also why JS originally allowed the $ symbol anywhere in variable identifiers.
