Thanks, I'm not 100% sure this gives me what I need, so I'll elaborate in case you or other posters can fill in some details.

1. You suggestion allows an arbitrary Where clause to be added. I want a completely aribitrary SQL statement.

2. I read DBIx::Class::Exception, but one has to explicitly throw an exception. I'm looking for code that will pass errors back to the caller if something fails. At least, that's how I'd write it.

3. You mention stuffing a resultset and throwing it into a variable. I want a resultset for commonly used joins. If I'm always joining tables "Order" and "Items", for example, it makes sense to have a pre-defined ResultSet where I can just invoke My::Schema:OrderItems to get the joined results with appropriate where parameters sent as arguments. Can this be done? I haven't seen docs on it, but I assume it can.
