No, certainly not. However, given that the iterator is an object,
something like this should be possible:
    my $it = Iterator::Files->new(files => \@files, inplace => '.bak');
    while (<$it>) {
        print "current line: $_";
        print 'current filename: ' . $it->file;
        print 'current line: ' . $it->line;      # same semantics as $.
        print 'current output filename: ' . $it->output;
    }
You could also make the iterator object itself a blessed glob, so that
    print $it "foo";
becomes the equivalent of
    print ARGVOUT "foo";
(If you were feeling *really* clever, you could create a glob with IoIFP
and IoOFP different, so that
    getc $it;
read from the input file and
    print $it "foo";
wrote to the output file :) ).
