I disagree. I think we'll quickly be accumulating a lot of Perl 6/NQP files, and putting the nocritic lines in all of them is a bit of a pain, as well as adjusting them all later. If it helps, we can start marking all such files with 'use v6;', and then the critic (or its driver) can use that to decide if the file should be checked. Or, if that's not good enough, then I'd at least want to put the nocritic lines with the coda instead of at the head of the file (if that's even possible). Pm
