Subject: pre-load some baseline minimum perl versions based on popular modules
In order to prevent gratuitous "we tried to test your distribution on perl 5.XXX, but couldn't because not all prereqs would install" test reports from smokers in the future [1], it would be nice to populate certain minimum perl values based on the presence of certain modules in the prerequisites. For example, if Moose is in the prereqs list, add a dependency on perl 5.008003, etc (This could be provided as a hashref for easy extensibility in plugin bundles.)
