Re: http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=767#c3719

If we like to discuss what should happen when unset is called, we should
take into account that function calls may be nested. This may create
several nested (or pushed) local instances of a variable.

If calling "unset" pops such a variable instance, you would see the
previous instance that may be the instance from another function call
instead of the global value and I doubt that this is what users like
to see.
