1. make everything less fugly so people can sanely use it (ie, without tearing their eyes out of their sockets)

2. Moosify Helper.pm and co.

3. modification of existing code, ie:

   script/myapp_auth.pl --update dsn=dbi:Pg:dbname=hlagh

   , etc.

4. create with a given set of modules, ie:

   script/myappcreate.pl local::lib AppName, script/myappcreate.pl MySet::Of::Modules

5. Reaction-esque skinning, with a helper. Also, canned skins for download.

6. TT generation like TTSite with less suck

7. "support any sad fool who tried to CPAN something using the old API"

8. Support both application and component generation helpers

Wishlist:

• beat up MooseX::GetOpt add GetOpt::Long functionality

• Hack Makefile.PL of Catalyst dev so that if file::sharedir is installed then it deletes the dist-dir as you do make install

• disallow invalid catalyst project names

• create a default end ActionClass per application

• --minimal option to create bare minimum Catalyst app code (example, for inline test applications)
