As it is bad practise to use globals in the first place, we will not
add this feature.

Description:
------------
I wonder if the PHP designers could make it possible to apply an array
of variable names to the GLOBAL keyword without using a loop. For
example:
function global_in_here() {
$names=array("var1","var2","var3");
global array_to_variable_list($names); # what function would be used
here to convert the array to a variable list?
}
rather than:
function global_in_here() {
$names=array("var1","var2","var3");
foreach($names AS $name) global $$name;
}
Thanks,
