Thanks! I came across ExtUtils::MakeMaker::prompt when looking for answers to this question prior to posting (should have mentioned that). Correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under the impression that using E::MM::prompt means that a.) Anyone installing the module via Module::Build would not be prompted? b.) Everyone installing the module interactively (via Makefile.PL) would be prompted? I don't want either of these, I like to provide both a Build.PL and Makefile.PL so people have the choice of install system to use. And I also don't want to prompt every user for this information, I just want to tell the user "you can test this against against a live service if you want, and if you tell me to do so I'll prompt you for the information that's required".Not saying your suggestion is a bad one, but if both of these assumptions are true it's just not the right fit for me. All dogma is stupid.
