Last I heard, there's still no way for a function to masquerade as a variable. Has this changed?
>One thing I do like is that parameters are lexically distinct from regular variables, so it's always obvious whether some particular variable is lexical or fluid.
See one of my other replies for a usecase of dynamically bound functions (intercepting calls to a function within a certain dynamic extent) that makes me wish otherwise.
