I like this a lot, especially the way it deals with subroutine
parameters.

But... would it be possible to exten this proposal so that, if the right
hand operand is an array or hash variable, it will create a reference to
this variable?

That would allow subroutine calls like:
  foo('names' => @names, 'size' => 'A4', 'labels' => %labels)
to do the Right Thing.  It would even make the CGI.pm interface easier
for newbies...
