Package:  emacs
Severity: minor

	As currently implemented, the “electricity” of the Perl mode
	cannot be easily turned off, which is a problem as it doesn’t
	get the indentation right in some cases.

	I therefore suggest that an interactive command, similar to
	c-toggle-electric-state, be implemented for perl-mode, to switch
	the electricity on and off.

Please try the Emacs trunk version of perl-mode.  Its electricity has
been rewritten to work on top of (and be controlled by)
electric-indent-mode.

	Indeed, I’ve failed to see these changes in the code.  Thanks!
