For one-liners, it would be good if -E automatically enabled all the "positive" v7 features by default. -e would still be backwards-compatible.

-E already has the behavior of enabling the feature bundle of the current Perl version. It does not enable strict, and so I would suggest it should not enable warnings or utf8 either (as mentioned in the post, -M7 can be used to apply whatever use v7 may end up entailing).
