In specific, Exporter::VA will do everything Exporter::Dream does, except for automaticly creating the :all tag. It also has the advantage of already exsiting, and doing pretty much anything you'd want an Exporter to do.

It's a huge exporter with lots of options, various prefixes and (imho) unclear syntax. Although it does indeed do much of what Exporter::Dream does, I think the two can happily live together (I hope ::VA will get something like _prefix too. It's trivial to implement, and makes things much nicer). I'm not after versioning or configuration through the import method, especially not with v-strings :).

You say Exporter::VA has the advantage of already existing. While that is true, it is of not much use until it is uploaded to CPAN. You used a cpan:// link, so you probably thought it was already there. Either it is not, or search.cpan.org is broken.
