Is there nealy same module? ExportTo

Hi, All.

I have one module my calling ExportTo. It easily export function/method
to anywhere.
If you know a module like it, please tell me.
If there are no modules like this, I want to upload this to CPAN.

============================================================ ==================
NAME
ExportTo - export function/method to namespace

SYNOPSIS
package From;

sub function1{ ... }

sub function2{ ... }

sub function3{ ... }

use ExportTo (NameSpace1 => [qw/function1 function2/], NameSpace2
=> [qw/function3/]);

# Now, function1 and function2 are exported to 'NameSpace1'
namespace.
# function3 is exported to 'NameSpace2' namespace.

# If 'NameSpace1'/'NameSpace2' namespace has same name
function/method,
# such a function/method is not exported and ExportTo croaks.
# but if you want to override, you can do it as following.

use ExportTo (NameSpace1 => qw/+function1 function2/);

# if adding + to function/method name,
# This override function/method which namespace already has with
exported funtion/method.

use ExportTo ('+NameSpace' => qw/function1 function2/);

# if you add + to namespace name, all functions are exported even
if namespace already has function/method.

Exporter can export function/method to any namespace?
I didn't know it.

I am massively confused by this. Can you provide an example of when you
would actually want to use this functionality? In what cases or
situations does a module know to which namespace(s) it should export
its members?

Indeed, it may be rare case to use this module ....

But, for example. The case I don't know one class very much,
but I want to replace some function.
The class is depend on other class and complex, so I cannot write its
sub class and
it is dengerous to modify original source code.

It's my case.

I don't know Kwiki system detail. but I want to change one method,
but I don't know whether this modification is right or not.
So I don't modify original souce code and use this module.
