I thought, does D have the same "problem", and according to:
http://dlang.org/statement.html#WithStatement
No, it doesn't. D detects local variable shadowing and produces an
error.
It took quite some fighting to get that implemented. I vaguely recall we
didn't figure that issue until I tried to explain "with" in TDPL. Or it
had been already discussed in the forum? Anyhow, it made "with" quite cool.
But, then I thought does that apply to global variables as well?
Turns out, no it doesn't.

Should I raise a bug for this?
I personally think we're in good shape here, but an argument could be
made either way.
