Btw, people who want such a thing may want to take a look at
Class::CGI. It doesn’t actually do nested params, it takes a
rather more different approach, but the motivation for it is in
fact quite similar to that for “nested” params.

It also overlaps with HTML::Widget in that the goal is easier
validation, but there’s nothing in its design that ties it to
validation.

I’m not sure whether it can currently be made to work with
Catalyst, because it subclasses CGI::Simple to do its work,
but it doesn’t appear so tightly wedded to that module that
it wouldn’t be possible to make it work if anyone has an interest
in doing that.
