Actually this issue came up when I reported a bug on SELF !=
current_comp. John Williams wrote at that time:

"The ability to use $m->call_next from a helper component is at least
assumed, since we have tests for it.  I'm not sure if it is formally
documented anywhere, since it is not done very often.  It probably never
worked correctly in the past.

Using call_next from a helper component is tested for in t/11-inherit.t
(see the call_next_helper component in there).  However the effect on the
request component is _not_ tested, since the <& variants &> component is
only called from /subdir/autohandler, and not from /subdir/normal.  If you
add the call to <& variants &> to /subdir/normal, the problem is pretty
obvious, since the attributes and methods get invoked all wrong."
