No idea.  It just seemed like it ought to be made to mean something.

On the other hand, maybe making %:handlers special is wrong, and it
should delegate by default to an Array object.  In which case we'd
need a different declaration for cascading handlers, and there's no
pressure to make %:hash mean anything special.

If this were English, we'd just make it "handle" instead.  But that's
a rather subtle distinction.  Don't anyone suggest »handles...  :-)
