	Yet, for those situations where one needs shared "global" objects,
having a bucket module just for this purpose may be the solution (though
I'd personally think the design of the application could be improved to
make it less arbitrary).

	It is a capability of the language, and anything that removes that
feature risks breaking existing applications. It might make it into Python
4000...

	Also remember that compiled module files (PYC) don't know in what
environment they will be used. Your restrictions may force the system to
recompile EVERY Python module referenced whenever the main program file
changes, even if the modules have had no changes and the previous PYC file
is available.
