Yeah I know. It's the sub that looks kinda strange there.

You are probably right about Perl6. I've tried to read a few Apocalypses&Exegei, but do not remember much. I need something to experiment with to grok such stuff.

it occured to me that this is where Perl6 user exposed parsing would allow us to superimpose such features on the language seamlessly, without all the caveats inherent to Perl5 solutions.

You won't have to change the grammar or have a "parsed" trait on an operator. Every block is a closure, so something like this will work:

multi transaction (Object $object, &block) {
    ...;
    block();
    ...;
}

transaction $dbh -> {
    ...
