in thread Moose: What about "class" attributes?

But the idea of inheritable class attributes just make me cringe
So why does MooseX::Traits (which has your name on it) use hacks to achieve exactly that effect? The configuration of trait_namespace will inherit. If you don't like that, why not just use a simple package variable in the package of the object's original created type?

I suppose someone else maintained it and added that bit... but how would you (or how did you originally) do it, in keeping with your stated design philosophy?
