but then probably we should also have
@cases = @cases ^| @newcases; is same as ( @cases ^|= @newcases; )
@cases = @cases ^, @newcases; is same as ( @cases ^,= @newcases; )
the second creates a list of two-element arrays which may be useful.

in analogy, may be here
for @cases ^, @newcases -> $x is rw , $y {...}
will do the job . though not clear what happens when arrays have different
length. which proves that | is just special comma.
