Nice analysis! Yes, we can make rules that will (often, not always) catch this sort of thing. The problem is they require a capturing group, and that is relatively slow in Perl. Further, it is reputed by many to slow down ALL tests as soon as you put it into one test. I don't know if this is really true or not, but it is something that can be at least roughly measured in a mass-check. I'll see about doing some rules over the weekend to try this. Loren PS: A plugin would be another way of doing these, and theoretically would not slow things down. Someday I'm going to have to figure out how to write a plugin...
