I don't recall "insisting"...

Naturally :) I must have imagined this thread going past Re^3

So the expectation is reasonable

Actually only hope is reasonable, not expectation.

Disbelief at the amount of work involved and incredulity that it doesn't just work, on the other hand is unreasonable.

As it turns out, this topic continues to be an area active improvement effort in the Perl community.

You can help that effort by submitting a self-contained demonstration of the bug , and better yet, a patch to fix it as well :)
