[Laszlo-dev] still confused about referencing node id's from methods

[Henry Minsky]

This code
  <view id="v1"  width="100" height="20" bgcolor="red"/>
  <view id="v2"  width="100" height="20" y="100" x="${v1.x + v1.width + 20}"
bgcolor="blue"/>

compiles to a constraint method:
$lzc$bind_x$v2_$m10:
function  ($lzc$ignore = null) {
    this.setAttribute("x", v1.x + v1.width + 20);
}


$lzc$dependencies_x$v2_$m10:
function  () {
    return [v1, "x", v1, "width"]
        }


But nodes which have  id's set them on the "global" object. So how can we
expect these references to work? Did we decide we need
to put with (global) {...} around all method bodies? Or have the compiler
find all id's at compile timeand make real top level vars for them?
