NB: probably your * is redundant, since any() will expect a list.

I had any(@foo, @bar).length == 3 in mind. Does that need explicit references too @foo and @bar then?

I suspect so. any(@options) will be a pretty widespread idiom that we need to support, and I'm leary of autodereferencing an array merely because it's the only argument. I think people will be expecting a flattening context such that any(1,2,3,@many) works.

Just when I thought things were getting easier with explicit flattening, I learn about 'flattening context'. I'm a bit disappointed, but fortunately there are still many other things to be happy about.
