in this case it could be
      ....
      f.__globals__.setdefault ...

 (instead of the sys._getframe)

anyway, I also dislike the idea on the basis that __all__ is not
that usefull in itself, and people coming from static languages
(and worse, people building "pylinters") might come to find this
a "good practice" to the point of being mandatory
(else, fail the linter): and voilá: a lot of noise
to the language.
