Namespace for Unix File Permission checker

Hi I'm working on a module to check if another user may read/write... a
named file/directory
Namespace for that? File::Permissions or any better suggestions.

IMHO one level deeper would be appropriate.
File::Permissions::Unix would leave room for other
permission models (File::Permissions::Posix,
File::Permissions::Win32 etc.)

One could then build a generic File::Permissions
module on top of all specific modules and use something like
use File::Permissions ':Unix';
or even let File::Permissions default to the most commonly
used standard for the current operating system.
