As for me, namespaces need to be fully and completely put to bed before I
can move on.
I'd love to do exceptions next, but I suspect that I can't really do
exceptions properly until we have proper dynamic scopes. EHs may not be
controlled entirely by the general dynamic scope mechanism, but their
definitions and mechanisms for "entering" and "leaving" must be identical.
Personally I'd love to see your interpretation of dynamic-wind in Parrot.
And PDD format is a fine format to present a complete idea so that it can be
easily understood and, perhaps, adopted.
PS: All of this is about foreground projects. Background and bug fixes
always go on.
