No offense, but you're making this way more difficult than it needs to be.

Don't make subrequests unless you have a real reason for it, like needing to run some special auth handler that can't be called directly from perl. They have overhead and complicate things. You can easily set a specific handler or directly call some perl code without any need for subrequests. It's simpler and faster.

The way to pass data between phases or requests is $r->pnotes(). You just put the data there and then grab it in the next phase or subrequest. If you are in a subrequest, you have to ask for the parent request's record and look there for it. I think that's just $r->parent() but that's off the top of my head and could be wrong.
