Ah. So Warnock applies.
(Side note: when I first read "Warnock applies" on things in p6
summaries a year or so ago, I thought it was some really energetic
programmer who went around and applied patches as soon as people posed
a question. Turned out that wasn't the case...)

*nod* The lack of .from/.to is merely an annoyance, but the spaced-out
stringification is really, really surprising with /<foo>+/.
Do you have a short snippet to illustrate this?
