It probably already is in a FAQ somewhere; I just don't know where. :)

Wow. Since you went to the trouble of writing all this up, it really
ought to go in a FAQ somewhere.

Because the logic of the while construct doesn't require any

Actually, I once found myself wondering why while doesn't set $_ all
the time anyway... It would be nice to do things like
while ($iterator->each()) { ... }
while (query->nextResult()) { ... }

I was wondering whether the Perl 'while (<>){' idiom will continue to be
supported in Perl 6? I seem to recall people posting example code the list
using it (although I can't dig any up), but it seems to me that if Perl 6's
lazy list implementation is sufficiently smart, it could just be replaced
