Aaron's post made me think (that's only a good thing after coffee you know)

Currently, we have a fall through where actions that don't match up to table names fall through to something else (a really basic template handler right now).


I've been playing with something slightly different.

I've got two sets of experimental code.

The first adds a config option that takes the name of package that has Exported methods that can be called when there is no matching table. The second is roughly the same but adds a list of packages. Each package name is paired with a regular expression that is tested against the path string. if it matches, the code looks for an Exported method to call. The method calls are handled pretty well like the calls into table based code but not the same (obviously).

I'm using this to provide an interface to a global site search that uses swish-e. However, it's proving fairly useful. Would it be of use to anyone else? If so, I'll consider turning it into something CPANable.

ps you may eventually see another copy of this as I've already sent it from the wrong account once and it's in the moderation queue.
