Indeed it would. E.g. currently I have a lot of code in some CPAN modules (Syntax::Keyword::Try, and would need to add similar to Syntax::Keyword::Finally), to handle the return/goto/next/last/redo cases, which could all become a lot shorter if such modules had that feature available to them. Admittedly it's unlikely to be useful in SKT's case because that's being migrated into core *anyway*, but I am thinking ahead to "the next one", whatever it may be. -- Paul "LeoNerd" Evans leonerd@leonerd.org.uk | https://metacpan.org/author/PEVANS http://www.leonerd.org.uk/ | https://www.tindie.com/stores/leonerd/Thread Previous | Thread Next
