Traits with pool vars?

I love the way traits separate method from class.

Traits do not know the ultimate class, so they cannot reference instvars.

Traits do know Smalltalk, so they can reference global variables and are 
not quite stateless.

I have occasion to experiment with "regional variables" and want to use 
pool vars for this.

Ar a first glance, it seems simple to let traits access pool vars.

Does this violently violate the ideas behind traits?
