Would it work to call this process autoquoting, instead of stringification? I'm assuming other means of stringification do not involve interpreting barewords. > One other quibble is that we're switching ranges in character classes to > use ".." instead of "-", so trans should use the same convention. Wasn't there going te be a feature to trans entire strings? i.e. 'foo' => 'bar', where foo is a single thing replaced by bar. Does this not exclude any possibility of specifying ranges in strings?
