Way back on p5p, a while ago

	lazy

as in

	grep { ... } lazy &foo, &bar, &zed

The opinion seemed to be going toward having the caller determine
laziness. 

The alternative (or simultaneous capablity) was

	sub foo :lazy () {}

It might be acceptable to have it as an attribute of the argument/parameter.
