Humbug. If your function API isn't explicitely saying it's using the current value of $", then it shouldn't use its current value.

Do not assume people haven't touched it. They have every right to, without having to appologize for it, to you.

Anyways, you're right in "counting on the default value", and in production use $" should be localized. I just didn't find it being necessary in the context of this thread.
