in reply to Catalyst usage in the wild...

I think the dispatching is neat but does anyone else feel that the stash is kind of icky? I have not used catalyst yet but from the docs it looks like just a reference to a global hash with nothing to stop actions using conflicting names within the stash.

I have in mind to use a 'namespace' per controller or to assigning to the stash with a set method so I can check I'm not blowing away an existing value; unless there is a defacto standard between people working on catalyst modules?

    This mostly depends on how much you forward in your app.
    There is no standard, but nobody ever complained about this, so it's definately no issue. ;)
