in thread Why isn't C<use strict> the default?

I think combining warnings and strict into one package, let's call it "caution", would help. Then we could "use caution".

I proposed exactly this years ago. I even registered the ex::caution namespace and put together an implementation. It wasnt particularly well received when I first brought it up, but maybe its worth returning to. Perl has moved on from then quite a bit.
