It would be greate if compiler were able to use `theAllocator` and

by the way.
I should have suggested different names if don't like present ones.
if `processAllocator` stands for the whole process then there must be
`threadAllocator` as well. But that's not the question.
I would like to know about usage strategies of various allocators within
the same code.
What I normally do for memory to be owned by the thread is:
auto foo(IAllocator alloc=theAllocator()) {...}
Where as for if it is global to the process:
auto foo(IAllocator alloc=processAllocator()) {...}
Basically it is the difference between a screenshot of a display and a
window instance.
