I'm not looking to enforce this on all distros, but I think it could be a useful Configure option

Not at the moment. I have to patch perl.c in order to remove it. 

I'm pretty sure I could provide such a patch on my own. It turns out there's only about 4 test files in core that need patching if "." is not in the path. At the moment, I'm hearing some distaste for the idea, but also some interest. So I'll be sending a patch for discussion once 5.16 is put to bed.
