Hm... interesting idea. The main point seems to be unifying the sub declarations and the dispatch table. In the first example, you declare subs, then create a dispatch table for them, then dispatch. In the second, you declare subs, and essentially use the symbol table as a dispatch table.
You could also do the opposite, which is to create the subs as part of the dispatch table:
my %dispatch = (
foo => sub {},
bar => sub {},
baz => sub {},
qux => sub {},
);
if( exists $dispatch{ $method } )
{
$dispatch{$method}->();
}
);
Or am I missing the point?
(It's entirely possible. I should be asleep right now.)
Once it's Turing complete, everything else is just syntactic sugar.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
