Anatoly,

Forget about flow, for the moment, and just consider rules.
If you could roll back time, and didn't have to consider
backward-compatibility, would you eliminate the ability to use globals in
rule right-hand-side code?  
If not:
  Why not?  And does the same logic not apply to the WorkItemHandler
context?  

Is your message that "use of globals in any user code (rule right-hand-side
or WorkItemHandler) is strongly deprecated, regardless of whether any
alterations are made?"  That's my interpretation.
