I think a helpful warning would be a "No parent to call" warning, which would pop up whenever you call ..() in the initial proc definition. Hopefully it'll get people to stop adding it in randomly. Thus:
proc
  whatever()
    world << "BLAH"
    ..()

The last line would generate a warning.

Agreed. Hopefully then people would actually take the trouble to find out what ..() does. =)

Gads that's a brilliant idea. I don't know how easy it'll be to do but I'll check.
