That seems like a lot of typing. You can already get "import nothing"
with () and "import only ..." with qw(...).
IMO, the main thing wrong with Exporter is that there is no unimport.
(Yes, the UNIVERSAL thing and this inheritance business is also wrong,
but that's only from the POV of using Exporter directly.)
