Subject: Weird classification of PPI::Token::Quote types
'PPI::Token::Quote' gets double quoted strings but not 'PPI::Token::Quote::Full'. Very surprising classification of "/^ARRAY$/" as a quote element.
With the new Perl Foundation grant money, I've been able to completely refactor all of the Token classes. On the down side, much current code will break. On a more positive note, I have cleaned up all of the Token classes so that now PPI::Token::Quote is an abstract base class for the four quote types, '', "", q{} and qq{}. The new token heirachy is in the recently uploaded 0.840_01.
