The idea is I want to put in the beginning of the module:

declare('XYZ_FOO', 0, "The foo property")

Okay, that seems like a passable excuse.

One thing to watch out for is that if your 'declare' function
is defined in a different module, when it calls globals() it
will get the globals of the module it's defined in, not the
one it's being called from.

There's a hackish way of getting around that, but it might
be better to put all of these symbols in a module of their
own and import them from it. The declare() function can then
be defined in that same module so that it accesses the right
globals.
