FWIW, if I needed something like this I would use Plackup and - if
necessary - the "Shotgun" reloader to achieve the same results, using
the "is a PSGI" feature of Dancer.

] plackup -L Shotgun ... myapp

Which should do what you want without the Dancer folks having to
maintain it.  (I always go check if there is a Plack way to achieve
something like that, because it is then portable to other frameworks
as well.)
