Syntactic sugar for less verbosity (Score:2, Interesting)
NewFind->file() instead of ->type('file')
NewFind->name( '*.mp3', '*.ogg' ) to get a shorter 'or' condition (in this case, can be written as NewFind->name( qr/\.(mp3|ogg)$/ ))
Provide an ->exec( \&command ) hook, similar to the -exec option to find(1) : i.e., gets the pathname as its only parameter, returns true or false.
Think about -prune and finddepth.

Can I get a quick show of hands as to whether people will really miss this? If so then I'll find a way to make it work.
