I have to second Kent here. "Toolchain" as an entity is #toolchain, Perl-Toolchain-Gang, and the various mailing lists. The discussion there around this certainly hasn't been extensive. And I personally said that I wasn't comfortable with the inclusion of inc::Module::Install. There has been an increasing number of things that were discussed in private but only brought to the list as "this is the conclusion." I don't think that's really appropriate. Discussing things offline or in other private places is obviously fine, but the results should be brought to the list as arguments, not conclusions. As for the direct issue of an inc::Module::Install shim, for CPAN the most common use cases it won't be needed. CPAN clients will already be setting the PERL_USE_UNSAFE_INC variable, and packagers will mostly have to as well. The case it is really covering is running Makefile.PL manually. Considering only CPAN dists, I'm not sure that is an important enough use case to justify including it. It may be worth it though given darkpan, such as code generated with Catalyst::Devel.
