But the question becomes where do model actions occur and how do we change pages based on this?
You are thinking about the problem incorrectly. There should *not* be a  MyApp::Update::Validate package. There should be a MyApp::Update::HandleUpdate page which has the logic above and then executes the model actions before returning a response so that the responses can come from subclasses of HandleUpdate... here's the code: 

package MyApp::Update::HandleUpdate;  # <-- note new package name
 
sub model_actions {


}

sub response { 

  my $self = shift;
  my $response; 
 
  if (not validated) { 
    $response = 'Redo'; 
  } elsif (not authorized) { 
    $response = 'NotAuthorized' 
  } elsif (not authenticated) { 
    $response = 'NotAuthenticated'; 
  } else { 
      # just render here.
      # if we felt like it, we could have __PACKAGE::success
      # and  __PACKAGE::failure
      $response='HandleUpdate'; 
  } 
 
  $response = "MyApp::Login::$response"; 
 
  return $response; 
 
}
