+1 especially if it's already there.

Bike shed: Would it be better as an object accessor giving the length of the
month of the current date?  While internally it's used as a class method,
presumably DateTime users will already have an object and you'll want to know
how long its month is.

    my $dt = DateTime->new( year => 2011, month => 2 );
    print $dt->month_length;  # 28
