Agreed.

All you BBEdit users, take it upon yourselves to write e-mail to
support@barebones.com requesting:

1.) Perl 5 keyword support
2.) Better parsing of ', ", #, q, qq, qw, and here-docs.

They did say Perl 5 support was coming, but more e-mail can only encourage
them to do it more (probably).
