I think cut from Moose yet, but not from CMOP. I think we will need to think
the
relationship between CMOP and TC is complex. TC would be build on CMOP,
but CMOP would want a TC system for full functionality (as if someday we decided
to move some of the method signature checking to CMOP, which is where I think it
would be most useful, but I could be wrong).

Yeah, totally. As per my last email I agree with the sentiment here, with the
caveat
regarding backcompatibility.
