For me, this space-matters-in-some-situations thing is probably the one I dislike the most in Perl 6. Isn't it the other way around? Currently, space-matters-in-some-situations in Perl 5; and this is the antidote to it. No space allowed between a function name and it opening paren. Sorted. (Is it any different to requiring that there be no space between '=' & '~' in the regex operator?) It's correcting a problem (in Perl5) rather than creating a new one. 'cept maybe for those who dogmatically believe that the close presence of a ( makes this: func (); suddenly become invisible: func( );. I can still see it.
