I would agree that this is, in fact, a very Perly thing to do. Also, it is quite clear what the author intends to do w/ this function, and the localization of $_. I would be afraid of moving too far beyond this little stretch of a pronoun if only to prevent leading the maintainer of the code ( usually me! ) VERY far astray.
