Only supporting v1.2.3 triplet semantic versioning.

I wouldn't go as far as to call it a "gratuitous incompatibility" since there are no Corinna classes right now which would break because of this. But I agree with you that having decimals would be good: Semantic versioning can be an obstacle in early Corinna adoption. If I want to migrate an existing old-style OO class to Corinna while keeping the API, I would need to change from decimal to semantic - and, worse, users of the class might need to change their code, too.

No native way to support read/write accessors.

I'm not sure what you're expecting here? Corinna attributes can be declared to create reader and writer methods, for example:

slot $name :reader :writer

This creates a ->name method to read, and a set_name($new_name) method to overwrite the value, much in the style of MooseX::SemiAffordanceAccessor. You can not use the same name for reader and writer, though (which in my opinion is a good thing).
