Patch rejected; the patch appears to eliminate "Perl6Scalar"
entirely from the 'is copy' semantics, this means we'd be without
an appropriate Scalar container for something like
sub foo($a is copy) { ... }
In general I think much of the signature handling in Rakudo needs
a significant refactor, so I'm a bit reluctant to apply small
tweaks until that happens.
Thanks!
