That's too much to read and Perl is not a good example to follow. Why not
extend the arithmetic expansion syntax to allow generating multiple results
when subscripting indexed arrays? Like `${a[1; 2; 4]}', `${a[3..5; 7]}',
`${a[1..10..3]}', etc. These would expand like `$@' when in double quotes
and like `$*' when being assigned to a variable.
