What's wrong with C<delete> in an array context? If there's to be a distinction between storing an undef value and resetting to the default value -- and, having read Damian's thoughts on the matter, I'm almost convinced that there shouldn't be -- then I think it's much more obvious to distinguish C<delete> and C<undef> rather than C<undef @a[1]> and C<@a[1] = undef>.
