I really understand your point. If there was several competing OOP modules, things *could* get really complicated (in my opinion, it isn't the case for perl 5, but it is worth discussing), but it doesn't seem as if anyone has put any effort into defining what needs to be common and what doesn't.
Seriously, do you believe that the hyperoperators address the problem, you're referring to?
