Yes, the goal is not finding out the best way to do a progress-bar API (I think doing the Progress::Any-style progress bar is still okay), but how to emulate the style of a Python library.
As a bonus, one doesn't need to know the length of the list in advance with an iterator!
With for(@tied_array) we also doesn't need to calculate the length of the list in advance. We can just retrieve an item one by one, and for() will still invoke FETCHSIZE on each iteration. Which incurs an extra cost, admittedly.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
