Not the named capture stuff, this stuff:

    my ($pattern, $method) = @MSG_PATTERNS[ $i, $i + 1 ];
    next unless $msg =~ /\A$pattern\z/;
    my $result = $self->$method({%+});

I never thought to A) put a regex in the first index(?) of an array and
B) I didn't know you could use a variable name as a method call like that.

Where does '{%+}' come from?  Is that the Moose stuff?
