Geoff, your comments are all valid, but I believe in a daily use for an
average programmer, it's much easier to grasp:
$r->header_out(foo => 'bar'),
than:
$r->headers_out->{foo} = 'bar';
this one is better:
my $headers = $r->headers_out;
$headers->{foo} = 'bar'
but requires 2 lines of code.
$r->headers_out->set(foo => 'bar') is fine though. I'd use this one in
the common user docs's examples (not API docs) rather than the tied
interface, when you want to get/set a single key and don't need to
re-use the object.
