This breaks the principle of encapsulation of Object Oriented
Programming. A benefit of objects is that they hide wants inside them.
Here you are going through a 'back door' rather than using the
advertised interface of methods provided by the C::A object.
That's why someone else suggested using param() instead, and that's why
people write simple plug-ins which make simple wrappers that add valid
methods to the CGI::App object, extending the objects facade rather than
working around it.
The issue is as much philosophical as anything. In practice, I don't
think you would run into too many 'gotchas' with this approach. It's
just not considered 'clean' and 'pure'.
The plug-ins themselves actually often break the encapsulation principle
in the same way. The difference is that the user is shielded from this.
If two plug-ins ever caused a conflict because of this, it could be
resolved by changing the plugin's internal code, rather than having to
change user level code in N pllaces.
