I have to admit that while it seems petty, I have been put off by the
name as well. Everytime I see something like that I tend to lump it into
the "I'm trying to fix everything that I don't like about this module"
(in the same group as CGI::Application::Plus or HTML::Template::Pro, etc
which really don't add anything substantial and aren't that 'sweet :).

What if I don't agree that a feature of C::DBI is 'broken'. I'd rather
be able to pick and choose which features to use from C::D::Sweet. Who
knows, maybe I'll become a full convert, but I'd rather start off in pieces.
