It could, that hadn't occurred to me. However...
The mnemonic "-f for function" wouldn't strictly hold any longer.
Right. It would be "-f for function or operator".
search perlfunc for the specified thing, failover to a search of perlop
a lookup table of what lives where
a ghastly regexp to determine where to look
Those are all implementation details. Is this change for the benefit of the users or the programmer?
The big point is that it doesn't matter if something is a function or an operator? The distinction is irrelevant 99% of the time.
What if you had a US atlas that indexed the states in one table, and the commonwealths in another?
