Just to add my two cents to this amazing thread (in the sense that it=20
is showing the usefulness of the list) I don't understand why some=20
people relate sets to this. =46rom the very name I think the intention =
of=20
the module is clear: you've got arrays, only they are kept sorted=20
automatically.

An array is different from a set in Perl jargon, so the name and the=20
implementation are OK for me (I agree with s/Tie::// but that's another=20=

issue). It would surprise me if duplicates were removed, they are not=20
removed in everyday arrays, and the module is about arrays.
