My namespace::local module has got some new switches in v.0.04:

• -above (0.04) emulates namespace::clean:

  package My::Package;
  use Lots::Of::Imports; # imports will only be available until end of scope
  use namespace::local -above;
  
  
  sub do_things { ... }; # this will not be hidden
  

• -below (0.03) hides everything that follows it from outside view:

  package My::Package;
  sub public { ... };
  use namespace::local -below;
  sub private { ... }; # not available outside this module
  

• default mode still confines imports and/or functions between the use line and end of scope:

  package My::Package;
  
  
  # cannot frobnicate here
  {
      use namespace::local;
      use Some::Crazy::DSL;
      frobnicate Foo => 42;
  }
  # can't frobnicate here, too
  

I also added a list of symbols that this module shall not be fiddling with, which is most likely incomplete.

Still it looks more like an Acme:: toy, to be honest. Who needs to hide their private functions? Just document the public ones to the point where nobody cares to look inside! =)

Have fun.
