Hmmm, is that the generic "we"?
(It seems to me that whether something is CORE-worthy is really a
decision for the internals team. Whether something should be a valid,
meaningful construct in Perl, regardless of the implementation, is the
focus of the language team. Perhaps a better job of making this
distinction will keep the language list from its current bloat, as skud
pointed out. The language list keeps migrating from "why" to "how".)
