A thought related to [* *]

I'm using DBIx::Recordset (very nice) in some of my embperl pages. 
Because it uses typglobs, I get concerned about scope, and having one 
part of page interfering with some other part, expecially if I'm 
including multiple embperl files in an EmbperlObject environment, so 
I do this:

[* { local (*set); *]
...
[- *set = somerecordsetcall -]
...
do something with *set
...
[* } *]

a) Does this make sense, or am I causing myself unforeseen problems?
b) Might there be a better way to deal with this, by adding some new 
[$ construct for instance.  Something like:
        [$ local *foo $bar $]
...
        [$ endlocal $]

I'm not sure which upsets me more: that people are so unwilling to accept
responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate
everyone else's.
