According to horos:
> Include keyword 'open' in perl library? [y]
> Include support for 'http' in 'open' [y]
> Include support for 'ftp' in 'open' [y]
> Overload 'open' with other support (https, etc)? [n];
>
> Include keyword 'close' in perl library? [y]
> Include keyword 'select' in perl library? [y] n
One point against: The more of Perl that's optional, the more Perl
programs become non-portable -- perhaps by accident.
