In my TODO is an entry for implementing this for Sub::Exporter.
You don't even need to use AUTOLOAD:
* create Some::Long::Generated::Package
* import symbols from Foo::Bar into SLGP, wrapping each with
sub { shift; $original_code->(@_) }
* export Bar() into the calling package
sub Bar () { "Some::Long::Generated::Package" }
hdp.
