I'd quite often like to be able to do:
my $foo = undef;
foreach $thing ($foo->flatten) {
}
And have the loop not execute (by returning ())..
Is this idea insane? And if not, would you take a patch?
Cheers

21:16 < rjbs> t0m: no, undef is a value
Which I do not disagree with. It flattening to an empty list would be
syntactically nice (for some problems), however on reflection is
entirely incorrect.
