Yes, but it seems that you understand the issue with 3rd party globals.
It's easy enough to work around 3rd party globals in your own code, but what
about getting 3rd party globals to play nicely with 4th or 5th party
globals?  The current answer is, you can't, unless you edit some 3rd, 4th,
5th, etc party code yourself (adding namespaces or changing names).
