Catalyst::Plugin::Digress

This plugin gives you the useful part of the Catalyst "forward" method
without the weirdness (or the madness):

* It does not catch exceptions (the most important benefit).

* It passes parameters like in a normal Perl method call.

* It does not mess with "$c->request->arguments".

* It preserves list vs scalar context for the call.

* It does not walk the Perl call stack every time (or ever, even once) to
  figure out what its own name was (or for any other purpose).

* It cannot forward to components, only actions (because don’t ask how
  forwarding to components works).

In other words, is almost identical to a straight method call:

 package MyApp::Controller::Some;
 sub other_action : Private { ... }

 package MyApp::Controller::Root;
 sub index : Path {
   my ( $c, @some_args ) = ( shift, @_ );
   # ...
   my @some_return = $c->digress( '/some/other_action', @any_old_args );
   # this is nearly identical to the following line:
   my @some_return = $c->controller( 'Some' )->other_action( $c, @any_old_args );
   # ...
 }

Except, of course, that it takes an action path instead of a plain method
name, and it maintains the Catalyst action stack for you just like
"forward" would, which keeps various Catalyst mechanisms working, such as
calling "forward" and friends from "other_action" with a local action
name.
