Ok.  So, there's an AUTHOR_META.yml or something which gets merged into 
the constructor arguments.  Except now you have to have that file and 
the latest M::B on the install machine.  But that only takes care of 
the author's side of things.

Are you wanting to modify the constructor arguments on the install side?  
Maybe some code would clarify your goal.
