I consider myself a serious Perl developer, working in a Perl shop for the past 15 years. We still prefer using bless and continue to use it in the present day. It so much lighter weight than the M* systems and I prefer the simplicity and speed of it.

All I need is magic structs with methods and that provides it. Throw in a constant array of properties and an AUTOLOAD, and you have accessors if you need it.
