Global scope: the meaning of the first-hit rule

General Usage
4

The clamor about the 1.0 global scope died down because a solution was being proposed/worked on, not because the problem went away (see also e.g. recent post Use of variable in Julia REPL). People understand that a solution takes time, and in the meanwhile softglobalscope can be used as a stopgap solution for the most interactive uses (default in IJulia, use in the REPL should be easier or even default IMO)
