This is my idea for it; .zebra could always be the 'default variables'
attribute 'zebra'. The With could also make the [variable, alias, whatever]
default, but not replace the $_:
$_ = "monkey ";
$foo = "coward";
with ($foo){
print;
print "$_";
}
would output "monkey coward". If this was univeral and heirachial, then
$foo.bar.quux = "chainsaw";
with ($foo){
with (.bar){
print .quux;
}
}
I see a problem with "." being the old way of sticking strings together
though.
