I like the general idea, but why specify the globals you're going to use? Why
not something like this:

--------------------
module foo;
int globalVar;
class Foo()
{
    int instanceVar;
    static int classVar;

    @explicitLookup  // Name subject to change
    void bar()
    {

        int globalVar;   // Error
        int instanceVar; // Error
        int classVar;    // Error

        globalVar   = 1; // Error
        instanceVar = 1; // Error
        classVar    = 1; // Error

        .globalVar       = 1; // Ok
        this.instanceVar = 1; // Ok
        Foo.classVar     = 1; // Ok
    }
}
--------------------

And, of course, let it also be used like like this:

--------------------
module foo;
@explicitLookup: // Applies to all code below
int globalVar;
class Foo()
{
    int instanceVar;
    static int classVar;

    void bar()
    {
        globalVar   = 1; // Error
        instanceVar = 1; // Error
        classVar    = 1; // Error

        .globalVar       = 1; // Ok
        this.instanceVar = 1; // Ok
        Foo.classVar     = 1; // Ok
    }
}
--------------------
