[Catalyst] multiple schemas based on login

[James R. Leu]

I do something very similar.  Here is the piece of code you need to
get you going (I originally got my example from the list back in Feb or Mar):

package MyApp::Model::FooDB;

use base 'Catalyst::Model::DBIC::Schema';

sub ACCEPT_CONTEXT {
    my $self = shift;
    my $c = shift;

    my $schema = $self->schema();
    my @sources = $schema->sources();
    my $source;
    foreach $source (@sources) {
        my $name = $schema->source($source)->name();
	# name is 'table' from your DBIx::Class
	# change it, and then store it away
        $schema->source($source)->name($name);
    }
}

This code was heavily modified from my actual use, so there might be something
that is not quite right, but it should get you going in the right direction.
The key is implementing you own ACCEPT_CONTEXT method and changing aspects
of the Model before the database connection is created.
