Class::MethodMaker has a method maker called "object" that declares a slot to be of a particular object type. For example:

use Class::MethodMaker new_hash_init => 'new', object => [ HTML::Mason::Lexer => 'lexer' ];

You can then choose to proxy selected methods from the contained class. For example, to create a class called CGI::Simple that contains a CGI.pm object in a slot called 'query' and proxies new() and param() to it:

package CGI::Simple; use Class::MethodMaker new_hash_init => 'new', object => [ CGI => { slot => 'query', comp_mthds => [ 'new', 'param' ], } ];

This seems just nextdoor to your module to me.
