HaloO Carl, you wrote:

This hits home. And I did at no point impute carelessness on your part ---unless of course if you don't want to, err? ... care! Sorry, couldn't resist ;)
Hm. For the time being I will assume that this functionality is not sufficiently wanted to deserve its own syntax. But I must admit I'm actually starting to like "_" in subroutine signatures... not sure if it works well with positionals and the like, however.
And could easily give a type markup with sigils and get $_, &_, @_ and %_ ignored. I here $Yoda speak "funny that is" :)
