To be fair, I don’t think it’s perfect. It provides no escape
hatch (pun intended) at all, nor does it provide a mechanism to
pass any of the optional arguments to `encode` or use
`encode_numeric` instead. No surprise that it doesn’t provide a
way to pass in another stash to chain to, either, although you
can hack around that.

This is a works-for-me 5-liner wrapped in a distro and thrown on
CPAN. (Actually a lot of TT-related modules are like that. TT is
simply itself too big and messy.)

However, that’s not such a bad thing in this case. Look at the
source and you’ll find that it is really, really, REALLY trivial.
So just copypaste and tweak to taste.
