To be honest, i would not want that kind of behavior. I, and only i am to decide if a new package is installed on my machine.
Using a good documentation along with your program, and anyone familiar using cpan should be able to deal with it. Why? If only by the fact that i rather use the deb / rpm packages (if they exist) in the standard linux distribution i use, than a self compiled one. All system upgrades take care of new packages as well then for me. Don't mess with auto installation. For perl-only packages, well, just put them in your program library.
