I appreciate this. I've wrestled with this some using H::T.
Data::Grouper and careful use of DBI help this some, but I could still
imagine a way for this to still be simpler and easier.

I see. I can appreciate this philosophy as well. Is anyone aware of
tuturials that focus on learning to use TT this way? That would seem
