Err- not really the same thing- which is why I suggested "global 
constant"

Like global, it would be usable in all scripts.
Unlike global, it would not have to be declared in each handler using 
it.
Like constant, it would be directly usable in any handler that wants it.

Having "global constant" would provide that ability.
