Something more like old :ronly hack? :-)
I've never actually wanted to limit my numbers, strings, or arrays.
And the only reason I've ever wanted to limit my hashes is when I
was thinking of them as records, not hashes, and wanted typo-protection.
Implicitly creating things on demand is quite perlish, no?
