pdcawley has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Suppose for a moment that you'd been spending the last few years programming in Ruby using Rails. Suppose further that you'd got sufficiently hacked off with the framework that you were seriously considering switching back to something Perlish for adding new features (because, frankly, Moose is lovely) to your webapp.

How does one get Moosey goodness and persistent objects that won't require one to rejig the database schema?

Suppose that the application you're looking at extending takes advantage of ActiveRecord features like single table inheritance, composed_of and various other bells and whistles.
