Yes, I think it should be done for the modules that don't have a parallel
existence on CPAN. Given the tentative nature of the lexical warnings
categories could I suggest that only 

    use warnings 'all' ;
and
    no warnings 'all' ;

be used.

I see you have been underwhelmed with responses to this Tom, so I'll see if
I can steal a tuit to do it this weekend. I imagine they are all just doing
variations on a theme of this

    {
        local ($^W) = 0 ;
        # do something unsafe
     }
