That's been my thinking about Catalyst lately as well - use it for the  
engines and API and standard dir structure, and dispatch immediately  
into Mason for controlling etc. Of course, it's telling that I haven't  
done this for any of my pure-Mason servers yet. it's either not  
trivial enough or not compelling enough.

Yes, this will be wonderful. I assume by "not useful" you mean that  
PSGI/Plack isn't ready for prime time yet?
