Thanks a lot, again.

my Moo(se)->skills are still limited

I don't think the overload is really necessary, I don't mind if two Wrapper::Elements identify differently

handles intrigues me, do you know how it's implemented?

Unfortunately we have a performance issue, too.

and

> # <- and any other Element methods.

means the delegated methods must be listed explicitly and updated when Element grows in methods? °

That's why I mentioned AUTOLOAD and/or inheritance in the OP.

UPDATE

according to https://metacpan.org/pod/Moose#REGEXP I can dynamically filter all methods needed to be delegated at compiletime :)

That's a Mooseism not present in Moo.
