The best practice according to the Perl Best Practices book is to use
@{ $hash_ref }{ @keys }. (Pages 227-229).
Your code seems to be perfectly good. Maybe Komodo is silly and
doesn't know about hash slice pretending to be arrays.
Komodo is not the only tool that disregards this. Perl::Critic warns
about using %$hash_ref, but not about @$hash_ref.
(Your question reminded me of my first days of learning Perl. I
somehow figured out by myself that it makes sense that hash slices are
accessed as arrays. I don't understand why do so many people complain
the sigils...)
