Subject: Allow use of repetition operator as syntactic sugar
Hi. I think that it would be nice to be able to use the repetition operator to express the number of mandatory positional arguments. For instance: validate_pos(@_, 1 x 5, 0) In PP, the unfolding could work something like this: @arg_spec = map { ! ref && m/\A1+\z/ ? split // : $_ } @_

You can already do this by using the repetition operator, if you give the repetition operator a list: validate_pos( @_, (1) x 5, 0 );
