Sorry, no, I think I have been misunderstood.

I am not suggesting to remove indirect object syntax from documentation.
Nor am I suggesting it shouldn't be removed.  What I wanted to flag was
Kent Fredric's proposal from a couple of years back:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.perl.perl5.porters/128189

Given that there seems to be a consensus in favour of discouraging the
indirect object syntax, isn't it time to look at the perl core enhancements
that Kent F. proposed?  This is not about documentation but the language.
