I don't use CGI::Application, so maybe I'm misunderstanding how it works,
but how about a class method that returns the current CGI::Application
object? e.g., MyWebSite->current_app(). You'd set it at the beginning of
each request. Then, in your common RDBO base class, just add a method:
sub app { MyWebSite->current_app }
and now you can get at it from any RDBO object.
