I'm not clear on your constraint not to use 'bless', but the @ISA behavior works without bless.

This was my misunderstanding. I thought @ISA works only when a function is called indirectly via a blessed reference! I will try out whether your suggestion works also in my context (the difficulty is that my module will be used as mixin together with other modules, in order to form one big class, using Class::MixinFactory, and I don't know yet to what extent this effects package lookup (maybe it would be a good idea to study MixinFactory a bit).
