Well, that's why I put it in double quotes. It's subject to
interpolation.
On that note, I nominate Lloyd qq{Official} kw.pm Parrot

Really? I'm curious how you planned to use those. I tried
to think of a good example last night, and I couldn't.
In most of the cases where a lexical package makes some
sense, a lexical class seemed a bit better fit.
Interestingly, it would seem that you could create a global
subroutine within a lexical package. I'm not sure what to
call that. Perhaps a super-closure? Not sure what you
would do with that. Some sort of dispatcher to
package-subs accessible through that one point of entry
comes to mind, but you could do that with a normal package
with lexical subs.
