After quite a bit of playing around I have what I think might be a viable approach:

MooX::Role::Reconstruct

Of particular interest is test 05 and 06 in the t/subclasses directory.

I would appreciate thoughts on how it is implemented, how to improve the documentation, and how to expand the tests. I want to see how it plays with MooX::StrictConstructor in particular, but am unsure just how to include tests for that.

In the meanwhile, I hope someone finds this of interest. I expect to release it to CPAN within the week unless I receive a reason not to from my fellow monks or one of the Moo demi-gods.

You must always remember that the primary goal is to drain the swamp even when you are hip-deep in alligators.

    Hint: use pod2markdown to make the docs more obvious: 
    pod2markdown lib/MooX/Role/Reconstruct.pm > README.md

    [download]
    But of course that external page may change, so it's much better do describe here what the purpose of this module is.

      Hi Arunbear,

      Thanks for mentioning Pod::Markdown, it was new to me. But i'm curious why you prefer it in this case over simply:

      perldoc lib/MooX/Role/Reconstruct.pm

      [download]
      Update: Ah, I see. A Readme in the root for users.. (github will also display it).
