It would be really swell to have a qualifier that makes a variable visible in functions by default. Right now, it is a real annoyance to have to global every constant that you use in the function.

The same is true for me, I really like somthing like that.

would be nice performance-wise using classes especially
where it sometimes happens that you are global'ing the same
vars in several methods

 Yes, define() is longer to write but is useful.
In PHP 5 there will be support for constants in classes. So wait for it :)
