As a principle, what would you suggest as an alternative? It's all well and good when a project happens to be small enough that it fits in nicely with the aptitude and resources available to one person, but as we know not all projects are like that.
I recall you said something similar recently about POE, and also not as specifically less recently. I sorta agreed with you there — my point was that reusing good design is as good as reusing good code — but sometimes you don't have time to do all the coding yourself. (This is problem is remarkable in UI; and most certainly in web presentation where there's a lot of menial work.)
You seem to be hinting at a profound distinction between library (or module) and framework. If I'm smelling right, would you care to share your thoughts on the differences?

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).
