I submitted a patch a while back on Perl5 Porters which did that exact
feature. There was praise for it, but unfortunately wasn't accepted from
bleed. The reasoning was I should have instead changed my cpan settings.
WTF I know. I don't have any sway on P5P. But maybe somebody reading this
can try again (looking at you *Paul* :)
You can find the Perl5 Porters discussion here:
