This module extends the debugger's 'f' command so that you can simply enter the standard module name to switch the debugger to it:

DB< 1 > fx My::Module

This would look for My::Module in %INC; if it was not found, we would attempt to 'use' the module. If this also fails, we give up, with an error message.
