Don't impose your religion on others.  If people want 'this' instead of
'self', that should be just fine.

It should be pretty easy to define the appropriate $ME-reader like this:

  use ObjectStyle 'self';

or

  use ObjectStyle 'Java';

for the appropriate, per-module scoped, definitions for:

- self vs this
- super vs SUPER vs base vs parent
- DESTROY vs finalize vs destructor
- default of 'private', 'protected' or 'public'

and any others we can come up with...
