Perl 6's idea is almost perfect: It's Lisp with braces. You can do what the fuck you want with the language, define new operators, it has macros and other ``abstract bullshite''.
Perl 6 fails for being FUCKING BLOATED. It should be a ``small'' core: macros, a way to define operators, some basic data types and some basic operations to use them, classes, junctions, pattern matching and the Perly stuff (regexen, grammars, etc). Then let the user build on top of that core.
