  Wow, that's very similar! I had done some searches for "overload" and "'%{}'" before writing mine and your module did not show up.
  
  The key difference between our implementations are:
  * Mine applies externally post-facto, yours from inside the code
  * Mine allows access from sub/superclasses, yours does not (deliberately!)
  * Mine supports all of overload.pm's dereferencers, yours supports %,@,$, and &.
  * Mine allows access from anything in the same package, yours allows access only from matching package AND file
  To generalize, your implementation is stricter.
  
  I'll document all that in my SEE ALSO.
  
  I like your comment about foolproofness. :-)
