It unpacks Files from an Archive, it unpacks an Archive into Files.
I saw it from just from the other perspective, when giving the name.
It is a direct competitor to Archive::Extract, yeah, so Archive::* makes
sense too.
but then:
- it is not actually limited to Archives. It can also unpack e.g.
a PDF file into images and text.
- we already use the module in several places, with exactly that name...
- it is my way of naming things. I'd prefer the name as is.
Moot points?
