closures really?

I'd rather use die/croak and a something like Catalyst::Plugin::ErrorCatcher

    Yes, closures are how Sub::Exporter works. Moose uses Sub::Exporter under the hood to export its has, extends, etc keywords. has, extends, etc are all closures. Catalyst is Moose-based. You use Catalyst; you're using closures.

    Catalyst is Plack-based. Plack is an implementation of the PSGI spec. Under PSGI all web apps are closures. You use Catalyst; you're using closures.

    perl -E'sub Monkey::do{say$_,for@_,do{($monkey=[caller(0)]->[3])=~s{::}{ }and$monkey}}"Monkey say"->Monkey::do'
