That's clever way to think of "-". :) I'll think about that.
it feels more natural to me to explicitly manage what gets exported and how at a different level than the keyword used to define something. i don't dislike rust's solution per se, but if you're someone like me who still instinctually does start-of-line relative searches for definitions, suddenly `fn` and `pub fn` are separate namespaces (possibly without clear indication which has the definition i'm looking for)
sub EXPORT() { Map.new: "&frobnicate" => &sum }
would import the core's "sum" routine, but call it "frobnicate" in the imported scope.Note that the EXPORT sub can also be a multi, if you'd like different behaviour for different arguments.
