I strongly suspect that the people who use Module::Release are not the ones uploading modules with boilerplate. Putting the test in Module::Release is a good idea, but it would not abate the primary problem under discussion.
Well, I myself use Module::Release (of course), in fact I've contributed a bunch of code to it, and I *still* upload crap with stupid mistakes to CPAN (though I never make the same mistake twice anymore). How do you think I had the idea to put those sanity checks into my release process? ;-)
I think seasoned developers make as many silly mistakes as newbies, they're just different kinds of mistakes.
I guess what I should do is just write the M::R patch. -Ken
