Dear Linda, It feels like Perl is not very trendy these days. Support for that many languages was added because certain popular plugins are written partly (or fully) in these languages rather than Vim Script. Python is probably the most popular language for extending Vim right now, perhaps after Vim Script. Ruby goes next, then Lua. But I've never came across a single plugin which would rely on Perl to be honest. May I ask why you think that Perl is so important for that Vim distribution?
