I think my biggest problem with this is what got me off Perl.
Add $, together with already used @ and maybe some other
identifiers and I start loosing track of what each of the character
means. It is fine when you are used to the language, but
learning it becomes a harder proposition. self.foo is self-explanatory
(no pun intended) to me, $foo is not.
