Hi all, >From browsing the archives of this list, it looks like this is the place for me to make a suggestion for a documentation addition. (Apologies if I'm wrong.)
I think it might be useful to note somewhere in the perltrap docs that while Perl permits null characters to be embedded in strings, using such strings in functions which supply arguments to an external program (e.g. exec and system) may result in unexpected and undesirable results, as the nulls may be interpreted as string terminators.
