Access to structured data is always nicer than implementing and
re-implemeting a parser for its serialized form.
So if it doesn’t take too much effort, it would be nice to have.
I might even need this at some point (I’m the current maintainer
of Getopt::Auto, though I must admit I have not done much to earn
the title yet).

Since we’re at this: the one thing I still fall back to
Getopt::Std for is small scripts. I love Getopt::Long, but it
incurs a pretty high startup cost. Is there any chance you can
play some deferred compilation cards to make it go faster?
Of course, it’s kind of tricky for a module whose code all runs
exactly once, at program startup… maybe you can isolate the code
that implements various features and compile only those which are
actually requested/used? Of course, I have no idea what I’m
talking about, given that I haven’t taken even a cursory look at
the code.
I just thought I’d throw these out here while we’re at the topic,
before I get distracted by some other shiny ball.
