Seems like it would have to evaluate the want() either way. Either in
the sub prototype:

   @ sub { }        # want @
   $ sub { }        # want $

or in the sub body:

   sub { want 'ARRAY' ? @array : $scalar }

I don't see a speed advantage. At least not enough to justify a whole
new sub syntax (with new core hooks, basically an embedded 'want', etc,
etc).

New features are cool, but not at the expense of bloat. I don't want a 5
MB Perl executable just for something that's already (more?) easily done
another way. :-)
