encoding.pm has a Filter option which, instead of hooking the upgrad-
ing of strings, simply runs the source of the file through a decoding
source filter and does an effective 'use utf8'. This option actually
makes sense and follows a sane model.
Currently encoding.pm emits a deprecation warning on any ->import.
Should it perhaps only emit such a warning when using ${^ENCODING}?
It is the latter, after all, which we are trying to removed, because
of the problems it causes.
