perl-autobox

The autobox pragma allows methods to be called on integers, floats,
strings, arrays, hashes, and code references in exactly the same manner as
blessed references.
Autoboxing is transparent: values are not blessed into their (user-defined)
implementation class (unless the method elects to bestow such a blessing) -
they simply use its methods as though they are.
The classes (packages) into which the native types are boxed are fully
configurable. By default, a method invoked on a non-object value is assumed
to be defined in a class whose name corresponds to the 'ref()' type of that
value - or SCALAR if the value is a non-reference.
