+The C<var> argument can be an array or hash value.
+Magic for those behaves like for any other scalar, except that it is dispelled when the entry is deleted from the container.
+For example, if you want to call C<POSIX::tzset> each time the C<'TZ'> environment variable is changed in C<%ENV>, you can use :
+
+    use POSIX;
+    cast $ENV{TZ}, wizard set => sub { POSIX::tzset(); () };
+
+If you want to overcome the possible deletion of the C<'TZ'> entry, you have no choice but to rely on C<store> uvar magic.
