I highly favor adopting DBIx::Class or another db abstraction layer over writing our own lightweight abstraction layer. While it will seem lighter at first to create our own, we will want to add more functionality, multi-db support, etc. I think it is better to take advantage of the excellent work already out there for this.
Andy (acmoore) here at LibLime has been investigating DBIx::Class as a side project; he will likely post some results soon.
