That's bit too much, I'm afraid.

Agreed.

I wonder what the name should be... Encode::HanPack?
Encode::HanExtra?

Ok, that be it. Attached please find the patch to Encode.pm; I'll upload them
to CPAN today.

Also, should we mention the fact in order to use CJK encodings, you need to
use Encode::(TW|CN|JP|KR) first? Is Encode.pm the proper place to insert such
a notice?

Thanks,
