I can't detect any :unique in blead modules.
The only one I know of is our $summary : unique in Config_heavy.pl
So that's a big plus for removing it (which is already done in fact).
If it doesn't get replaced, we should deprecate :unique and have it
emit a warning.
I actually like the idea of :unique. It's just finding a viable way to
implement it may prove more fun.
Then again, if copy on write can be made to work across threads, I guess it
all becomes irrelevant, as with that anything that is not modified is stored
only once.
Indeed. And you won't have to break your mind anymore where to add
":unique" and where not, as it will be all automagical then.
