Sometimes the solution is simple
Many moons ago I had an idea for a useful module. Unfortunately I ran into a small roadblock and I dropped the project.
Well tonight I realized that instead of installing into UNIVERSAL::AUTOLOAD I could just install into AUTOLOAD where requested and document the problems that AUTOLOAD always has and let people request their own AUTOLOADs, and accept the problems that come with it.
I have no idea why I missed it before.
Or is it a BUG?"
