in reply to Params::Validate or Attribute::Params::Validate?

Note that Attribute::Params::Validate ships with Params::Validate.

So far, I've never needed to use the handlers form; Params::Validate has been perfectly adequate for my needs. However, I've found that not everybody likes Params::Validate, and I've had cases of people choosing not to use my CPAN modules owing to dependency on P::V. This inspired me to come up with Module::Optional including Params::Validate::Dummy, which allows people to still use code with calls to validate(), validate_pos() etc. without installing P::V.

Not all of my CPAN modules that use Params::Validate have been changed to use Module::Optionsl yet, but this is something I intend to incorporate on their next release.
