I'm just catching up with the new and funky Dancer2::Plugin and I want to make sure I've understood the rationale of why it doesn't load 'strict' and 'warnings' for you like Dancer2 does.

Is this because when you're writing a plugin, you're writing Perl rather than an application in the Dancer domain specific language?

I like that explanation. I think I'll go with that. :-) For what it's worth, when I was working on the initial prototype, I didn't do anything to load strict and warnings in the importing namespace because, personally, I've never been a big fan of that Moose/Moo/Dancer behavior. Had I stopped and try to lay down my thoughts, I'd probably have come up with something close to your guess: if you write a plugin, you're stepping behind the curtain and are assumed to have sturdier Perl chops. In other words, the (safety) gloves are off. :-) Joy, `/anick
