Subject: Insert #line comments when munging
Whenever the various plugins Dist::Zilla uses manipulate the file, they should include #line comments when running dzil test. It would probably be bad to do this in production, but when running "dzil test" I expect that the line 195 reported in the error to match line 195 in lib, rather than line 195 in .build/blahblahlbah/blib/lib/...
I don't see myself implementing this, but patches are welcome, if they seem likely to work without making plugin-writing a pain. It seems difficult. I have had very few issues with sorting out what came from where, so generally this hasn't bothered me. Also, if dzil test fails, it leaves the build dir intact so you can investigate if needed. -- rjbs
as more munging becomes common, this is not going to happen unless someone undertakes the herculean effort to make it easy to do anywhere -- rjbs
