Wherever possible I pass parameters as arguments to functions in order
to eliminate having to use global variables. I tend to use custom
properties only for persistent data (you'd want to use a global var
rather than a custom property for a password, for example). I use
globals sparingly for things that get unwieldly as parameters or can't
be managed otherwise, or at least without a lot of extra work.

There's no particularly right way to do this, mostly it's just a
matter of style.
