Subject: Symbol name can be any Perl string literal?

Just thought that subj could become like a killer feature of Marpa as with use
utf8; (UTF-8 source encoding) it allows using mathematical (or any other,
for that matter) notation in a textual grammar and that grammar, being
properly parsed and evaluated, would be transformed into perl (
Lingua::Romana::*Perligata*<http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~damian/papers/HTML/Perligata.html> on
steroids).

Perl6 has malleable syntax with its regexes, but (as of yet) has no Marpa
to ensure that everything you can write in BNF is parseable.

Weird as it is, just a thought.
