So in your code, if you wanted to explicitly import something you'd have
to write:
require Module;
IMPORT Module;
??? Don't like it at all, sorry. It would be the only uppercase keyword
in Perl. The syntax should remain
import Module; # yes, I do this, you need to sometimes
Think of other cases, they all do something similar to what I proposed:
tie *STDOUT, 'Apache'; # TIEHANDLE
print STDOUT; # PRINT
close STDOUT; # DESTROY
and so on...
