Personally, when it helps readability and maintainability, I have used goto - just very very rarely. Usually, where goto might be used, last can be used, though sometimes requires also using an error variable.

As for "missing receptors", the only idea I have come up with is to make sure that all "goto" labels are unique. A major problem doing this is finding all the labels. (Maybe Perl::Critic can help with this.) Pre- or post- fixing labels can reduce collisions, but this is very tedious extra work. Maybe defining Pluggable keywords, for example, throw and catch could automate this.
