Just a note - DBIx-Class should not be called "DBIx" alone. DBIx is the top-
level-namespace for DBI extensions, and it also includes such things as:
* http://search.cpan.org/dist/DBIx-Simple/
* http://search.cpan.org/dist/DBIx-Log4perl/
* http://search.cpan.org/dist/DBIx-Chart/
Calling DBIx-Class "DBIx" does injustice to them all and is incorrect. DBIx-
Class however, may be abbreviated as DBIC.
