"This allows to create really nice, but properly scoped pseudosyntax."

OK, I can think of some chunks of code I've written where that would make modest sense.

While my benefit/cost threshold for adding a syntax feature is generally much higher than the Perl team's (... much, much higher...), this does seem to fit in with their other additions then. Thanks.

That feature's been on the wishlist for many, many years. It was also one of the early features specified for Perl 6, if that means anything.
