Hmmmm well, as far as I'm concerned, DBIC does the "right thing"(tm). I
simply hate interfaces such as jdbc returning a result set containing
only one element. With this approach, I'm obliged to add a call to some
methods to extract the (unique) record contained in the record set. I
strongly oppose the extra work needed by that: truly a perl programmer
I'm really lazy (well, I'm lazy, whenever I'm a real perl programmer is
to be discussed. But I'm lazy:)). 
Moreover, it seems to me that the answers where to the point: if you
want a resultset use search. And let people like me use find :)
