ok, so I went down the wrong road due to the code-ref passing, ref(\foo) being
SCALAR vs \&foo being CODE tripped up the scrubber.

So after a pair debugging/understanding session with Dominik (thx!) I now:
* appreciate our perl code way more, as Scrubber shows that one can do it way
  more cryptic and harder to grasp

* got that the style stuff now works pretty great, I only fixed the undef value
  variant for the url remover and passing the code-ref

applied, thanks!
