Oof, yeah.  I've been wanting soft-deps for ages for reasons along these
lines...

Ok, so I've done the split and committed/built it in rawhide.  The packages
soft-requiring it we'll have to add it manually *sigh* unless the package
maintainers add it as a test_requires (which given how many of them use
Module::Install should be trivial for them to do).

I've also filed bugs in rt for the ones above (RT::Client::REST can be _very_
useful) -- except for Moose itself, of course -- so hopefully we'll be seeing
test_requires metadata on them soon.  I also didn't file one against
DBIx::Class as they're still considering Moose to be a "soft" requires. 
RT#47258 to 63.

I'm marking this CLOSED/RAWHIDE; we'll get it out to F-11/10, but not until
we're through the current mass-Moose updates, at least.
