Re: Several Questions

Christopher,

Well it all depends on how you want to extend them, some ways are  
better then others.

To extend the whole of Moose, take a look at the section on Extending  
and Embedding Moose in the Moose.pm POD. It explains how you can wrap  
the Moose system and extend it for your needs.

To just extend the options that 'has' accepts, you can do that with  
custom attribute metaclasses or attribute traits (there are cookbooks  
on both of these).

Short of that I would need to know more what  you want the syntax too  
look like to give you any better clues.
