I share this pet peeve. I've been using Time::Duration since ... forever.

Mojo::Date has a nicer interface, but I still don't know how I feel about it 
being in core.

I can see the arguments for - date and time handling comes up in almost any 
non-trivial web app, and you might as well make it look good and make sense.

Overall I think I'm in favour. Not sure about the 'cutesy dates' name :-)
