Well, I can explain that I've been at this for hours on end, and when I
went to dig up the code so I could explain, I realized that I was
reading from an out-of-date database, so the writes weren't showing up.

Apparently, beating ones head off the wall for hours and embarrassing
themselves by posting publicly makes the reason for an issue immediately
apparent.

Oh well, as a side effect, I've probably read half of the man pages, and
 learnt a tremendous amount regarding DBIx::Class flexibility ;)
