would this be better suited by the previously proposed (i'm not sure for perl6 though)
C<no scope;> pragma? Looks like Nathan Wiger has already proposed a 'scope' pragma in
RFC 64, but it does not cover this functionality as far as I know...
as I remember, the C<no scope;> pragma, when used, would simply act as if the
enclosing scope were not in place, enabling such things as:
if ($ints) {
no scope;
use integer;
}
Tom Christiansen brought up the idea on p5p at:
