I use ONLY all the time for the exact same reasons as Brian Hanson. I consider
it good programming style, especially if it's necessary for others to read the
code and quickly understand where everything was defined.
It is the for the same reasons of transparency and also for better control that
I would like to see some kind of IMPORT statement included in the language at
some stage that can be included in module procedures, enabling one to specify
which variables will and will not be obtained by host association from the
pre-CONTAINS part of a module.
