Not very wrong since Encode is part of perl core. For unicode-specific
questions, there is yet another list called perl-unicode@perl.org.

You are right. Encode does not have UTF-7 since I reckoned virtually
no one is using it :) And so far as I see there is no CPANized module
that does that, though Punycode is already implemented in
Encode::Punycode by Tatsuhiko Miyagawa.
So be our guest. Go ahead implement one. You should use
Encode::Encoding as a base class as documented in perldoc
Encode::Encoding.
