Are you sure that is supposed to work without some kind of () or <>
like a module identifier? But a doc note would be helpful.

Hi Tom,
One example from the doc is: WOW:That'sAwesome, so yes, I believe that
should be possible. Also I've already used this in Xml::Actions where
function names can be named like abc:def:start(). A small REPL test
shows also that a simple assignment works on these type of variables;
my $abc:def = 10;
10
say $abc:def;
10
Regards,
Marcel
