Excellent info, Matt.  Thank you very much.

Also, I should also add a clarification to my prior email.  Based on
this thread and Carl Franks recent documentation updates, I finally
got around to playing with DBIx::Class.  I have been reading through
the POD for DBIx::Class and it's very good:

http://cpan.uwinnipeg.ca/search?query=DBIx%3A%3AClass&mode=dist

I'm still fairly early in my exploration, but I have been really
impressed with both the documentation *and* the functionality of
DBIx::Class.  Hats off to Matt!

For others who have been holding off on checking it out, I would
humbly recommend that you "go for it."

Regards,
