I found another great use for callbacks: A callback on `connected()`  
to set things up for a handle the first time it connects. Bricolage is  
using it for its MySQL support:

http://github.com/bricoleurs/bricolage/commit/68571810c4d79c73e7224471e008398ba9141a8d

The relevant code is:

     Callbacks => {
         connected => sub {
             my $dbh = shift;
             $dbh->do(q{
                 SET SESSION  
sql_mode='ansi,strict_trans_tables,no_auto_value_on_zero';
             }) unless exists $dbh->{private_bric_sql_mode};
             $dbh->{private_bric_sql_mode} = 1;
             return;
         },
     },

Best,
