I have tested this solution in PerlQt and it works fine but I have to say I 
don't find it entirely satisifying.
It's a kind of simulated inheritance, but classes don't _truely_ inherit from 
GlobalSpace (unlike they all formally inherit the Qt namespace for instance).

So there is logical inconsistancies: you can call qCompress() from a 
Qt-derived class, but not from your main package.
And what about Qt::Scrollview.qCompress() ? That doesn't feel right.

I think I'd rather implement a package that you can request, and that will 
import all the GlobalScope symbols into the current namespace (with a "use 
Qt::GlobalScope;" statement).
Not sure if it's a real problem though.
