If you believe the hype about Moose dragging in half of CPAN in
dependencies (haha), then I think this little bit of
micro-optimization isn't really all that necessary. 

Not really ideal for repetitive execution environments where startup
time is important (CGI, etc), but I don't think anyone is going to be
using MXD for such environments anyhow. 

That said, I am fairly sure there some black magic that you could
invoke to prevent loading of MXMS, but then your module declaration
would need to be before MXD (rather than after). But I digress.

Congratulations on your success. Next time I wander off into MXD land,
I'll give your module a whirl.

:)
