Basically, because a) half of it already did insist on blessing, and b)
I'd like it to pass through things like \'DEFAULT' directly to

not attempt to deflate them.
Could we compromise by letting blessed scalars through but handing arrayrefs
and hashrefs to deflate?
I guess I can see that for references, but what if somebody wants to
"inflate" something into a simple scalar value? For example, I might
want to do a simple regex on a datetime column rather than instantiating
a whole DateTime object which would be overkill.
That doesn't work now, anyway ...
We've discussed a FilterColumn API that would implement general filtered 1+
column <-> 1+ object attr mappings but nobody's ever stepped up with an API
RFC, let alone a design. Suggestions welcome (though in a new thread please)
