[Dbix-class] View Definitions for non-virtual views

[Thomas Sibley]

I noticed this too, a while back, and wondered about it.  I believe the reason is that for folks who want to dump a database in order to start using DBIx::Class’s deployment tools, the authoritative view definition needs to start living in the .pm file.  For folks, like myself, who manage the database itself and use dbicdump just to sync the .pm files with it, the view’s underlying query is useless in the .pm.  I agree an option would be nice.
