=head2 namespace
-This spesifies the internal namespace the controller should be bound to. By default
-the controller is bound to the uri version of the controller name. For instance
-controller 'MyApp::Controller::Foo::Bar' will be bound to 'foo/bar'. The default Root
-controller is an example of setting namespace to ''.
