I like that. Is that in anticipation of having &ksh(),
&zsh(), &python(), &php(), &tcl(), ... ?  To reduce some
clutter, maybe a param like this would be fun, e.g.,

  default_ini_evaluator = perl

So MTT will assume you mean &perl() if there's
no leading '&'.

Other legal options being ...

  default_ini_evaluator = python
  default_ini_evaluator = sh
  default_ini_evaluator = tcl
  default_ini_evaluator = ...
