The Future of Perl (Ovid's thoughts)
What I'd like to see (unrelated to a Perl 7 or 8) is continued improvement of support for code editors. I've been using https://github.com/bscan/PerlNavigator and it's a real pleasure. I know there are other language servers for Perl as well. It's encouraging to see people working on these tools.

In preparing to teach Perl, I discovered one of the main reasons for Perl's loss of popularity. - opinion
PerlNavigator is by far the best languageserver implementation for VSCode (and other editors)

VSCode Syntax Highlighting for Object::Pad, Moose, Zydeco, Mars, etc.
No problem. I just added support for "method" and "fun" whenever "use Function::Parameters" is present in a file. This include syntax highlighting, outline view, and go-to definition. Commit is here: https://github.com/bscan/PerlNavigator/commit/10938c6d50eb342e1989d51a09b4fba8d023df57

GUI IDE?
I normally use Emacs. I recently read about this tool that integrates with many editors and was hacked during the latest YAPC. I haven't used it but it looks interesting.

Help Installing Language Server on Windows
There are at least three decent language servers for Perl. I do not run Windows and I am not familiar with it, but I believe the simplest language server to install on Windows is probably perlnavigator. You can also look at PLS. Both of these have VSCode extensions you can download. I don't use VSCode and you don't say what editor you are using, but I know a lot of people use VSCode. Both of these have good support in Neovim if you use that.
