Research direction

Start by inspecting src/global.rs and identifying how LVBS global variables are currently declared and accessed. Determine the intended grouping or packaging from the surrounding code and confirm which globals are initialized with once. Done means the globals are organized so adding more does not require an ever-growing set of separate global variables.
