in reply to Scope in use

There have been quite a few times over the last decade where I would have made something very nice had use not had that implied scope around it. So much so, that I dreamed of implementing a non-scope version of BEGIN (but never did): 

my $lib = 'foo' BEGIN;

So if somebody patches Perl to make use not have an implied scope, that would make me happy.

    I think BEGIN::Lift claims to do that, but it only extends to lifting subroutine calls. Depending on your actual use case, this might be enough already.

    Update: Also, Devel::BeginLift, which does the same according to BEGIN::Lift.
