Hrmm, that is impressivly simple, I had it in my head that it was much
more complicated to do.... Anyway I took the liberty of uploading this
to CPAN as 'ex::caution' as that is the experimental pragmata name i
reserved all those years ago. Once its fully in PAUSE ill make you
co-maint. 

How do folks feel about me changing its name to just 'caution'? Since
its a pragmata i suppose really Rafael should decide....
