Who said that? The ORM responsability is to map RDBMS to the objects you 
need, not to the language objects.
If the ORM can do that directly by just adding a configuration instead of 
needing to manually use of other modules, why is this bloat? You add that 
configuration only if you need it, not always, and it is much more simple.

All the Perl modules do the same, but some of the Perl modules accept 
plugins that make easier the collaboration of different modules which are 
needed often, and the need of localizing the date is a feature used often.

You told that you need to use another module for localizing the date because 
the ORM returns just a language date object that doesn't do that.
