Lint-safe, ES5, strict-mode-safe access to the JavaScript global object

Need to access the global JavaScript object? Need to do so in an ES5/Strict Mode -safe way? Want to pass lint without any extraneous variables? Oh, and it's package-manager safe, too.

var global = (function(f){
  return f('return this')();
})(Function);
