I don't see how it's useful to anyone in its current form, and some of the refactoring work being done in a branch is being made much harder due to it's existence.

If you're using this feature in a real application, please shout at me!!

We *were* using it, but found that a simpler (and more flexible) method is just to wrap locate_components in our app class. (Hint for future doc patch?)

Oh, interesting.

Would it be possible for you to show some code for how you were using it, and how you now wrap locate_components?

Just interested so that we can keep it / both methods working, or if we have to kill the former, write a good guide for how to change over to the new method.

I assume that the stuff from Module::Pluggable will still be available, because we *are* using except. Although that could be replicated in a locate_components wrapper as well.

Yes, yes it will. There is no intention to touch any of that stuff :)
