Here in my pre-caffiene morning trance it occurs to me that a few of
the "fringe" features of perl should be removed from the langauge.
Here's a few things that I would venture to say that none of the
"perl5 is my first perl" people have probably ever actually used.

        reset           # How often do you clear variables wholesale?
        dump
        study           # never been a win for me.
        ?pattern?       # one-time match
        split ?pat?     # implicit split to @_

What's everyone's feeling on removing these from perl6?  How often are
they used?
