Of course, if the programmer made sure to avoid "dirty" coding
practices (or the module is trivial enough that s/he didn't
consider those), then it's trivial.

Problem is getting the edge cases right -- can you assume you can
do that with any random package pulled from CPAN and have it
still work?

That's the kind of ground coverage I was thinking about. In
Perl5, that's decidedly nontrivial if the module author doesn't
cooperate.

It would be nice if in Perl6, he wouldn't have to -- if it would
Just Work, without anyone having to do anything special.
