in thread Why breaking can() is acceptable

If a package/class has an AUTOLOAD sub, will you be able to decline to handle a method, but say "I don't want to handle this, but keep looking in the inheritance tree"? Say for some reason, you want your class to handle get_* methods, and the next class in ISA (or whatever the Perl 6 equivalent is), to handle set_* methods; nevermind how good/bad of a design this is :)
