After the discussion about warnings.pm and (elsewhere) strict.pm, I wonder if
the next phase of this shouldn't be re::strict, which can have a 'default'
group as well as individual subcategories.

  use re::strict;
  use re::strict 'longhex';
  use re::strict qw(default smileys);

I don't suggest that you must do anything to change it right now, as it's
marked experimental and we can change it in the future without fear.
