Moo uses code like this to add an attribute to a class:

has taste => (is => 'ro',);

That's too much typing for lazy people. So applying the standard rules: 'parentheses don't really do anything so you can delete them', 'fat commas are really just commas', leads to this:

has 'taste', 'is', 'ro';

Well there's no point typing in that comma separated list is there? Why not use qw? This works:

has qw/weight is rw default 100/;

MooseX::MungeHas allows has to haz defaults:

use MooseX::MungeHas 'is_rw';
has foo => ();

Using the 'standard rules' this becomes:

has 'foo'; # works okay

But then to create a read-only attribute, it needs to be specified:

 has roattr => (is => 'ro');

Is there a way to make hasro and hasrw functions to add attributes? Maybe there's a module that does this and i just haven't found it yet?

hasrw 'weight'; # read-write
hasro 'roattr'; # read-only

Then if somebody was verrry lazy, they can easily define their classes without having to type a bunch of parentheses, fat commas, and typing in 'is' over and over again. Obviously this wouldn't be suitable for all uses.
