There might be, for example, heredoc contents (RFC162) in apocalypse
two.  But still, in general, they are trying to solve problems that we
don't have.

By the way, Micheal Swern (one of Perl guys) was pretty inpressed by
Ruby's iterator and metaclasses at Aarhus, and he wanted to see them
in Perl6.

It's time for us to give them ideas back.  I'm proud of.
