The basic problem is that I always hated looking at C++ and not knowing
whether I was looking at a function or a method, so I'm not going to
make standard Perl work like that.  On the other hand, there's always

    use self "";

to go with everyone else's preferences:

    use self "."
    use self "`"
    use self "·"
    use self ".."
    use self "^."
    use self "i."
    use self "o."
    use self "¤."
    use self "me."
    use self "self."
    use self "this."

Did I leave anyone out?
