I used:
use MooseX::Declare;
class Foo {
use Method::Signatures::Simple name => 'simple_method'
}
Which buys me the full fat MXD 'method' implementation for where I need
fancy stuff, and a 'simple_method' keyword for the rest of the time. I'm not
au fait enough with the innards of MXD to know how to alter what it injects
with the 'class' keyword. Method::Signatures doesn't seem to offer a
way to override the keyword name, but it should be easy enough to lift the way
Method::Signatures::Simple does it.
