i don't think it's a bug.
Catalyst::Manual::Intro also says:
You can pass variable arguments as part of the URL path, separated
with forward slashes (/). If the action is a Regex or LocalRegex, the
'$' anchor must be used. For example, suppose you want to handle /foo/
$bar/$baz, where $bar and $baz may vary:
sub foo : Regex('^foo$') { my ($self, $context, $bar, $baz) = @_; }
[..snip..]
If a Regex or LocalRegex action doesn't use the '$' anchor, the
action will still match a URL containing arguments, however the
arguments won't be available via @_.
have you tried adding :Args(0) to the action?

Seems that Catalyst first tries to match the full path, then tries to

match()
method:

Checking [training/webcasts/webcast_data/162/foo.html]

Ok, so is that a bug? Or am I not understanding the docs?
# Regex
sub bar : Regex('^item(\d+)/order(\d+)$') { }
Matches any URL that matches the pattern in the action key, e.g.
http://localhost:3000/item23/order42. The '' around the regexp is
optional, but perltidy likes it. :)
So it seems that would also match:
http://localhost:3000/item23/order42/something.else
but the "$" would indicate to me that it much only match the shorter
string.
