Personally, (and this isn't directed at you, Tanton) I'd rather see patches 
that implement or bullet-proof the design and direction of Parrot, rather 
than dictating them.  

Part of any interative programming is figuring out exactly what you need to 
do, and then doing it.  Instead, we're quickly following into the later Perl 
5 quagmires, where behavior and features are dictated by whatever happened 
to be coded.  This way lies cruftiness.

Just the fact that we needed this patch in the first place indicates that 
we're not doing *nearly* enough talking beforehand of some of the 
particulars of Dan's overall design.
