That will be up to @Larry to decide. "Non-trivial" Perl 6 content seems
obviously desirable, but it's not obvious to me what the reasonable criteria
for that might be. (That's another reason for deferring specifications to
wiser and better-informed people.)

Using legacy Perl 5 modules is an important Perl 6 capability for a great
many people, and it may actually be a very good thing to show off.
