-   - Bug ->go or ->visit causes actions which have Args or CaptureArgs caled
+   - Bug ->go or ->visit causes actions which have Args or CaptureArgs called
      twice when called via ->go or ->visit.

+   - Bricas' Exception blog post
 
-   - Certain errors in your application to do with using other code which does
-     not exist can cause an 'Unknown error' issue.
+     http://bricas.vox.com/library/post/catalyst-exceptionclass.html
 
-     This is now fixed, by moving back to B::Hooks::EndOfScope, but this (used
-     to) cause issues with the following modules:

+# Compatibility warnings to add:
 
-     according to comments in r8991. Retest these before shipping anything..
+  - $self->config should warn as config should only ever be called as a
+    class method.
 
-   - -restarter.t will fail if you don't have ::StashChange installed, and
-      also quite often at other times.
+# Proposed functionality / feature additions:
 
+## Log setup needs to be less lame
 
-   - Catalyst::Test - bugs with Moosification (Khisanth/kane)
+So Catalyst::Plugin::Log::* can die
+in a fire. Having $c->log_class would be a good start. kane volunteered
+to do some of this.
 
-   - Attribute called 'actions' in controllers - needs to be renamed to _actions.
+Simple example: Catalyst::Plugin::Log::Colorful should just be a
+subclass of Catalyst::Log, no ::Plugin:: needed.
 
-   - before finalize causes you to miserably fail to call plugins finalize
-     method (dmaki)

+##  The horrible hack for plugin setup - replacing it:
 
-Proposed functionality / feature additions:
+ * Have a look at the Devel::REPL BEFORE_PLUGIN stuff
+   I wonder if what we need is that combined with plugins-as-roles

+  NOTE - these are notes that t0m thought up after doing back compat for
+         _component_class, may be inaccurate, wrong or missing things
+         bug mst (at least) to correct before trying more than the first 2
+         steps. Please knock yourself out on the first two however :)
 
+  - Eliminate actions in MyApp from the main test suite
+  - Uncomment warning in C::C::register_action_methods, add tests it works
+    by mocking out the logging..
+  - Remove MyApp @ISA controller (ask metaclass if it has attributes, and if
+                                  so you need back compat :/)
+  - Make Catalyst::Context, move the per request stuff in there, handles from
+    main app class to delegate
+  - Make an instance of the app class which is a global variable
+  - Make new instance of the context class, not the app class per-request
+  - Remove the components as class data, move to instance data on the app
+    class (you probably have to do this for _all_ the class data, good luck!)
+  - Make it possible for users to spin up different instances of the app class
+    (with different config etc each)
+  - Profit! (Things like changing the complete app config per vhost, i.e.
+    writing a config loader / app class role which dispatches per vhost to
+    differently configured apps is piss easy)
