You may be interested in the "winking fat comma"...

use constant KEY => 'foobar';
use Data::Dumper;
print Dumper({ KEY ,=> 'value' });

Looks like a fat comma, works like a regular comma.

perl -E'sub Monkey::do{say$_,for@_,do{($monkey=[caller(0)]->[3])=~s{::}{ }and$monkey}}"Monkey say"->Monkey::do'

    And then there's also the one they call the "weeping programmer": 

    >perl -wMstrict -le
"use constant KEY => 'foobar';
 use Data::Dumper;
 print Dumper({ KEY ,,,,,, 'value' });
"
$VAR1 = {
          'foobar' => 'value'
        };
