I realise you say the above is psuedo code but I have to ask. How do you normally represent: 
$self->redirect( { rm => 'first_panel' } );

In your normal applications? Do you have a template method like the following (this is naturally untested): 
sub redirect {
    my $self = shift;
    my $mode = shift;
    my $new_url = $self->param('app_url') . $mode->{'rm'};
    $self->header_type('redirect');
    $self->header_props(-url=>$new_url);
    return "Redirecting to $new_url";
  }

I ask as I have wanted to switch between run modes based on data and have had to stick with these kind of methods. Either that or I call the runmode method directly.

Just a quick question - I'm sure the answer is yes but I thought I would ask anyhoo.
