've come across a module in CPAN that I really like, however it's written in as a very procedural module, even though it seems like a great candidate for OO to me. Additionally, it would integrate much cleaner into some other stuff I'm doing if it were an OO module.
As BrowserUK pointed out is I'd be doing a consideration of the benefit of going OO with the module. Secondly I'd definitely contact the current maintainer if there is one to determine their interest first. Even though the majority of modules I write are OO in nature I'm not always 100% convinced that's the way to go every time.

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).
