just an aside, and a bit off-topic, but has anybody considered hijacking the regular expression engine in perl6 and turning it into its opposite, namely making *productions*
of strings/sounds/whatever that could possibly match the regular expression? ie:


a*

producing

''
a
aa
aaa
aaaa

etc.


Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't this the :any switch of apoc 5? http://www.perl.com/pub/a/2002/06/26/synopsis5.html
