Overreading, perhaps.  :-)  You wouldn't at all be limited to then, just that the ordinary course of using the JSAPI would have you create your runtime, then create the global, then go to town with it, no other fuss necessary.  Embeddings that wanted more global objects could of course create them basically any time they wanted after the runtime was created.
