Subject: Data::Dump could use serialization hooks
As much as I love using Data::Dump, I have a problem in that many of our modules use the Inside-Out paradigm. As such, DD is unable to properly serialize the data-structures. It'd be great to have this functionality.

What interface would you propose for a serialization hook?

I honestly do not know. Both Storable and Data::Dumper do their hooks slightly differently. Storable automatically looks for STORABLE_freeze and STORABLE_thaw when it is serializing a blessed data structure. Dumper has a Freezer and and Toaster variable (sets the name of the methods it should use to serialize/deserialize) which basically does something very similiar, with the usual caveat that Dumper's configuration is typically global in nature. I dunno what would be the 'best' way, but I'd probably think of looking to see if STORABLE's hooks can do the job.

With the filter feature in 1.16, I believe this already satisfies your requirement. See dumpf() and Data::Dump::Filtered. -- sh
