DBIx::Class::Loader is going to become deprecated soon.  It will be
replaced by DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader, which requires DBIx::Class
0.5+.  So if you're considering any major work, either wait for that
transition to be finished, or take a look at the current progress @
http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/repos/bast/trunk/DBIx-Class-Schema-Loader.

I don't quite understand what it is you're trying to do with
Module::Pluggable::Fast above - could you explain with more detail
what it would accomplish?
