[Catalyst] PerlSetVar $r->dir_config

[Tim Keefer]

I see. However it doesn't seem to allow me to set environment variables
per <Location>. 

For example, I have one App that handles the
following locations: /my-app/foo /my-app/barr 

Basically, I'd like to set most of my configuration in the Apache
conf. I'd like to be able to give each location different environment
variables. With a typical mod_perl app $r->dir_config handles this by
passing its current SetVar or if not defined then
its parent value is passed.

I'd like to be able to do something like this, however it doesn't work. 

PerlOptions -SetupEnv
<Location /my-app>
  PerlSetEnv root "/var/www/template"

  SetHandler perl-script
  PerlHandler MyApp;
</Location>

<Location /my-app/foo>
  PerlSetEnv root "/here"
</Location>

<Location /my-app/bar>
  PerlSetEnv root "/there"
</Location>

Can Catalyst support this behavior?
