in thread Is there an IO::*-like interface for accessing tar files?

I wonder if you couldn't create a thin layer over Archive::Tar providing the IO::Dir interface for the TAR file itself, a method for opening the file name providing an IO::$something (IO::Handle perhaps) interface for a file handle created out of a scalarref from the Archive::Tar::File's get_content_by_ref method.

Interested in this because I have a similar use case a couple of layers down on my todo list.
