1 until defined(getvalue()); return it;

[David L. Nicol]

while pseudocoding something I realized that it would be really
cool if there was another magical default shelf, like $_  or _ but
subtly different, that stores, if lexically used, the object of the
most recent "defined" or "exists" --

or maybe even the most recently referred to scalar, just the way
"it" works in English.  "it" would change much more often than $_
does.
