Let me start out by saying that I personally do not use Devel::Declare or any of the modules which use it (MooseX::Declare, TryCatch, etc). My reasons for not using it are pretty much the same as your reasons. To be specific, I think that MooseX::Declare pukes up too many internal details when it errors and this makes for very tricky debugging and fixing that seems to be a non-trivial task (I say this only because no one seems to have fixed it yet or even come close). This too is exactly why MooseX::Declare remains a MooseX:: module and is in no way an "official" part of Moose. Not until I am sufficiently convinced of the stability of Devel::Declare and the error messages of MooseX::Declare greatly improve will it even be considered. In short, I totally agree with you (horror!), magic should be used sparingly and is never a foundation upon which you should build. But, all that said, the Devel::Declare team is trying to reduce the magic-ness by working with the p5p folks. What will come of this? I have no idea, we will have to wait and see.
