No good for one-liners, but this looks pretty sweet:
use 5.010;
use strict;
use List::MoreUtils qw/first_index last_index/;
sub narrow
{
my ($from, $to) = map { $_->(@_) } @{(pop)};
return @_[$from .. $to];
}
sub from (&$) { [ @_[0..1] ] }
sub to (&) { $_[0] }
my @list = qw/eval DBIC::1 DBIC::2 My::1 My::2 My::3 Dancer::1 Dancer:
+:2 Dancer::3 Dancer::4/;
say foreach
narrow @list,
from { 1 + last_index { /^DBIC/ } @_ }
to { (-1) + first_index { /^Dancer/ } @_ };
Obviously you'd want to factor narrow, from and to out into a separate module rather than defining them inline.
And given that from and to are quite generic names, perhaps something like start_at and finish_at might be better in practice.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
