What's wrong with "nonlocal"? I don't think i've seen an argument against that one so far (from Talin or others).

It sounds a bit awkward to me. Also, it would be nice if the keyword indicated which scope was operative.

If I've followed the discussions correctly, I think the parent scope would be operative, so I humbly suggest "parent".
