Re: RFC 107 (v1) lvalue subs should receive the rvalue as an argument

[Chaim Frenkel]

I assume you meant that :lvalue() takes a parameter list.  Either a
singleton named variable $, @, or %. 

Or If it makes sense even a more complex parameter list could be
demanded.

sub foo :lvalue(Dog $fido, int @array, %hash) {}

foo() = ($name, 0..10, %bar);
