This has nothing to do with the problem with 'with' (and is probably the
wrong mailing list :-) but as there's obviously some desire to shorten the
typing, how about supporting:
$one{two\three\four} instead of $$$one{two}{three}{four}
This currently is only a "backslash found where operator expected" and
looks rather good and Perlish... normal slashes would look even better but
then we'd run into troubles if you use variables instead of bare words and
those variables contain numbers ;-)
