*Ker-DUH!* Does the `no Moose::Role` go after all the methods are defined?

@Schwern, normally you put `no Moose` or `no Moose::Role` immediately before the end of the file. I think you can put it anywhere after you're done with `with` and `has` and `requires`, etc., but end-of-file is simplest.

It's not really needed at all; it just unimports the various sugar like 'has', 'with' etc. `use namespace::autoclean;` is arguably better (a best-practice on this isn't really figured out yet though).

If you're afraid of magic, and you're not using anything that imports functions *besides* Moose[::Role], then letting Moose do the unimport seems perfectly sensible. namespace::autoclean shines more when there's a big mess to clean up :)

Answer 2

A:

@Schwern - thanks for asking - I thought I tried this and had a problem and it's been nagging me. Now I have the courage to try again!
