I do this occasionally, when establishing quick defaults. Testing revealed that the last defined key/value pair for a given hash is the one that is used. Is this documented anywhere?
my $self = { %defaults, @_ };

    As far as I know, it's only documented in the same sense as this bit of code: 
    my $x;
$x = 1;
$x = 2;
