My mind has not changed, and I have not lost it. I have seen 2 good reasons to use the traditional goto in Perl, and I describe both above.

One was in Switch. The other is in the output of an automatic translator. (I originally said the wrong one, it is s2p that spit out lots of gotos, because sed code has lots of gotos in it.) I believe that the other was the original reason to have goto in Perl - Larry Wall wanted to convince people that they could learn Perl and do what they did with awk and sed, plus more, with just one tool. The automatic translation utilities made this feasible. But they would have been hard to write if you weren't allowed translate goto to goto.
