As long as we are pushing all kinds of syntax changes into this release,
  it would be nice if we could also implement a better syntax for
variable declarations.

My proposal would be to:

1. Add:

.PUBLIC: var1 var2 ...

and

.PUBLIC:
    var1 var2 ...
    var21 var22 ...
    ...
    varn1 varn2 ...

(with, of course, .PRIVATE:, etc done the same way).

2. Remove:
    - The current "declare" syntax.

    - The "public./private." sections. As we have often discovered it is
way too easy to do things wrong in them.
