That is the rule I follow as well. The only time the CGI::App object sees a DBI handle is when it needs to pass one to a plugin (like the session plugin). It never ever uses it directly. As a simple extension of this rule, if you use an O-R mapper like Class::DBI (or Rose::DB::Object which I have been looking at lately), you automatically enforce this separation. Of course it is not necesary to use an O-R mapper, but it can simplify a great deal of your code while providing that clean separation for you.
