I very much agree with "once and only once", my origins as a programmer were steeped in Asm and C. I realized quickly how it sucked cutting and pasting code (or making changes), then hunting down all the errors I cut and pasted. But on the other hand, I do a lot of CGI and including a dozen odd modules (and there includes) can quickly kill response time. (mod_perl isn't always an option.)

I'm not advocating people not use modules, but for myself, when it is something like this, were it amounts to a a few lines of code, I tend to keep it in a snippet file and cut and paste it into the source. In the simplest form.. 
sub add   {
    my ($self,$name,$value) = @_;
    return if $name !~/^\w+$/;
    my $pack = ref $self;
    no strict 'refs';
    *{$pack.'::'.$name} = sub : lvalue { $Attrs{+shift}->{$name} };
}

seems extreme for a module. On the other hand, if your attributes are more complex it could easily become worthy of using a module.

And yes I was confusing you with the poster, my bad.
