[ruby-core:113590] [Ruby master Feature#19682] ability to get a reference to the "default definee"

Issue #19682 has been updated by Eregon (Benoit Daloze).


@matz Could you take a look at https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19682#note-10?
This user is also intentionally misinterpreting my comments to do personal attacks (e.g. https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19682#note-11), I think that alone is a clear violation.
I think such behavior is unacceptable on the mailing list/bug tracker.
AFAIK I never did personal attacks to @bughit and kept it civil.
I think disabling his account on the bug tracker is an appropriate action here.
It is unfortunate it would come to that, but that has gone too far already, see below.

It is also not the first time that I and [others too](https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/10450#note-26) feel that @bughit is disrespectful on this issue tracker, many of his issues are not phrased in an appropriate tone:
* I recall https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/18461#note-9, e.g. "There no logic in this conclusion" feels needlessly aggressive, especially when that user is missing the point about compatibility and aliasing eval
* https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/11779#note-20 and later feels needlessly aggressive to @shugo
* https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/11256#note-21 "incoherent restriction that cannot be justified logically" is basically an aggressive way to say @jeremyevans0 's reply makes no sense (and it does make sense of course).
* https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/10450#note-13 and https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/10450#note-25 are needlessly aggressive to @duerst. This is another clear personal attack and disrespectful behavior.
* and probably more, sometimes it's rather subtle or needs multiple replies to realize why the tone is not appropriate, I listed the obvious ones I could find here.

I also feel this user is arrogant, notably he often writes he knows better than CRuby committers about Ruby, yet AFAIK he never did contribute to ruby/ruby.
Notably https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/18461#note-9 where he thinks it's OK to break tons of compatibility and won't even consider it an argument or https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/10450#note-22 where he does not listen for how to get progress on an issue.

It also feels to me this user is not interested in a productive discussion on the tracker, we have asked many times for a concrete example with Ruby code but he does not bother and pretends to know better (e.g. #17721, #19682, #19644, #12129, #10778, https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/10450#note-22, etc). I think filing issues without a concrete example *and* not adding one when asked is just wasting everybody's time, and a form of spam.

"default definee" is a pretty important context so why not make it easy to identify?

Could be a Module class method or a global method (Kernel) or a keyword.
