Could you elaborate on why you felt the need to "dump everything into the global namespace"? For quite a long time now, you can use modules in Julia to keep things in separate namespaces. With "import MyModule" (instead of "using MyModule") things will not enter the global namespace, but will need to be qualified, like "MyModule.myfunction(...)". I feel this is very much like Python. You could even introduce abbreviations for the modules, using "const mm = MyModule" (admittedly, Python's "import...as" is cleaner).
