There's a bug report about it. Those who have access to the QCC could 
add comments or votes here: 
<http://quality.runrev.com/qacenter/show_bug.cgi?id=7530>

The intent explained in the report is that with "Show Globals" turned 
on, all global variables are shown, and with it turned off only global 
variables that have been declared in the current context are shown. This 
doesn't seem to be working, but maybe the system globals are interpreted 
as applying to any handler.
