Re^4: Am I evil for doing this?

I prefer to not do the method-lookup twice and use the code reference returned by can:

if (my $code = $self->can($method)) {
    $self->$code(...);
}
[download]

$self->$code(...) where $code is a subroutine reference is equivalent to $code->($self, ...); you can even do []->$code or undef()->$code if you want.

See perltoc if you don't know which perldoc to read!
