Iâm not an IO::All user; Iâm posting to empasize this plea for
comments. I havenât taken to it for the exact reasons Smylers
mentioned: both its (arbitrary-feeling) overloaded semantics and
the use of Spiffy seem too hair-raising to seriously consider it.
I would be very interested to hear from someone who has actually
used it in a large codebase that gets pummelled day-in day-out.
How does it pan out in practice?

Yep, that one rocks. :-) Reminds me I should go add a review on
CPAN Ratingsâ
