--- Comment #53 from Kyle M Hall <kyle.m.hall at gmail.com> ---
I had a conversation with Chris Cormack about this and he didn't raise any such
concerns. Maybe we should ask him if he thinks this is not a problem or if it
was something neither of us thought about at the time.

Chris's primary concern was that we should always be able to make direct SQL
queries when we need to for speed, but DBIx::Class allows for that quite
easily. This conversation took place when I wrote my proof of concept using
DBIx::SearchBuilder as an alternative. After the conversation I deprecated that
patch in favor of using DBIx::Class.
