Of course the local namespaces on the stack are the unmentioned default 
(the intermediate frames are half way on the stack ..).

The discussion focused on off-stack, "common" name spaces. Python has 
done the right magic in order to let modularize code well.

Just self-similiar self-inspection is not (yet) done to the best in some 
places: this "_global" own module, self inspection in 
functions/classes/methods (nameless recursion), stack handling/callcc
