If done consistently, this destroys the sane multiline markup:

    $foo
    .bar(...)
    .baz(...)
    .quux(...)

And I'd really hate to be forced to use this instead:

    $foo.
    bar(...).
    baz(...).
    quux(...)

because then you lose visual indication that bar, baz, and quux are
methods (rather than functions), and the . and the end of a line is
visually lost and probably easily forgotten.

Plus, I don't like continuation characters at all.

Please reconsider.
