Subject: overload operators (and 'constant') for Math::Decimal
It would be nice if you were able to pass in :overload to Math::Decimal->import and have constants that match the regexes in this module automatically be blessed into Math::Decimal objects, and be able to do standard operations on them and have them be translated into the dec_* functions.

My todo list already has a note about this. I want to have a pragma that makes numeric literals and arithmetic operators work in the Math::Decimal way. It's not really overloading, though, and there's no blessing involved (there's no such thing as a Math::Decimal object). -zefram
