Mind that even when when this special case is treated it still won't work with
get_defined_vars() and others. I think the current behavior can be documented
in the clearest way giving the least confusion ... so I would not implement it.

Programmers, who use variable variable, dooms themself to slowdown performance
at any way due to calculation of the expressions. They won't see the
difference, I think.

But what about SUPERglobal? In fact they are almost superglobal :)

ZE decides if a variable have to be fetched from the global scope at compile
time checking predefined list of super-global variables.
The variable fetching by name (e.g. $$name) is always done from local scope.
Of course it's possible to extend executor to check for list of super-global
variables at run-time, but it'll introduce significant slowdown for each fetch
by name. I really don't like it.
