Produce a function that: passed two arrays (or array refs) returns an AoA containing all possible sequences of the two input arrays according to the "random pick - values in sequence" specified in the OP.
Rules: Strict + warnings. Array contents can be anything.
Entries that take longer than an hour to run for input arrays of 100 10 elements (184756 sequences) each are disqualified:)
See thospel's post for the reason for the rule change. It's still an interesting problem to solve, even without golfing it.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
