That it was that simple after all. This is doing the job except for one thing. If your hashtable contains a non-referenced top level it will be removed during the input using do. See sample below

Original hash table 

$VAR1 = 'dataParams';
$VAR2 = {
          'license_feature' => {
                                 'val' => 'geditor'
                               },
                  };

New hash table 

$VAR1 = 'license_feature';
$VAR2 = {
          'val' => 'geditor'
        };

So it is not exactly the same but it already helps a lot.
