 Having the ability to pass a variable into get_template_part would be
 invaluable, it would really clean up the issues with using globals and to
 further cement it's use rather than the alternative of a normal PHP
 include/require.

 It would be the third variable passed into get_template_part, which I
 could pass it a string, array, object, or whatever I want really. Here's
 an example of passing all the current scope's variables:

 {{{
 <?php get_template_part( 'twitter', 'feed', compact( array_keys(
 get_defined_vars() ) ) ); ?>
 }}}

 and then catching them in my feed-twitter.php file:

 {{{
 if ( !empty( $_data ) && is_array( $_data ) )
         extract( $_data, EXTR_SKIP );
 }}}

 I can pass other things in, but that's a really valuable example in my
 uses for this new variable.
