I'd like to say this is a bug in Dancer2::Plugin::REST but it has passing
tests, so I'm not exactly sure where the problem is. I played with it for a
bit and couldn't track it yet.
I hope to spend more time understanding this, but unfortunately I probably
won't be able to.
May I suggest taking a look at the tests and working your way back to your
code?
