Yes, I've looked into the perlretut (or something, forgot) section. It said, that it's a new buggy feature.
But, I kind of dreamed of feature like that, because, I have one megapattern, in one of my programs, that I've had to create an entire subroutine for it to parse with many different regexes and ifs thenths, that spans for about 3 screen pages. I was hoping for a feature like this to make that pattern matching subroutine to make more consize.
I think, in that sub's case, I am targetting not the speed, but readability and managedness of the code :)
