That's basically where I landed too, and the approach I'm going to take. I started looking at Module::Info and it already does the 'use' and 'require' parts. I'm going to try to add:
- option to exclude pragmata; it currently spits out stuff like 'strict' from 'use strict' as a module
- search for RootClass, which can be used in DBI connect
- search for Class::DBIs has_a which can inflate something into an object of a specified class;
I know we have the last two items in our code base for sure. As others turn up, I'll add them too.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
