The suggestion is that you drop that approach altogether and use proper
OO instead. If you join via ->related_resultset, you'll get the
appropriate resultset object and you can run methods on it without
resorting to monkey-patching against the DBIC internals, i.e.:

$rs->related_resultset('foo')

vs

$rs->search({}, {join => 'foo'})

And then you can spread out the "check" logic in each resultset class
appropriately.

Of course, this doesn't work for multiple joins, and I'd suggest a view
for that anyway.
