So tell me, how often do you have to inherit from another class at a later time?

You seem to have missed the whole point of my post. Let me extract the key sentences in my already short reply: "... and there [with imports lists etc] it's handy when you want to add something to the list /.../ though having a list of more than one element there [with base.pm] would be the exception, not the rule"

I tend to use qw() for the same reason I tend to add a , after the last element of a long array. It's less work if I have to add something else at a later date.

Hmmm, is it more work to add the comma when you append to the list? It seems like it's the opposite. It's more work to add commas everywhere that I might not use. However, I use tailing commas too. And too out of laziness. But not because I want to add stuff later. Instead it's because if I want to reorder the list it's quite smooth if all lines can be treated equally when cutting and pasting.
