Don't other languages also support ThreadVars? (I'm not sure myself,
only know Delphi)

Also, given some of the discussions about extending the IB 'sandbox',
would it not be appropriate to provide a more general mention/warning in
a chapter "Developing UDF" as well as in "Programming UDFs with Delphi".

Just my .02

I agree it would clearly be in the Index if it's in "Programming UDFs
with
Delphi." I don't think I'm convinced it has a place in the Glossary.
If
it has no applicability outside its symbolic job with Delphi local
threads,
it doesn't have a place in the InterBase Glossary...
