[dancer-users] Dancer2 Roadmap - your help needed!

One of my big projects right now involves streaming a live webcam into an
HTML5 video stream, which means it needs to stream a filehandle.  I have a
bug in the system to implement this in send_file():

https://github.com/PerlDancer/Dancer2/issues/659

I ended up backporting to Dancer1 because of hitting this.

Even better would be to have a simple function call that takes a filehandle
directly and streams it without needed to specify callbacks.

A smaller issue is to have an easy way to disable splat behavior.  I'm
reimplementing an existing REST API that has some literal '*' in many of
the calls.  With things on Dancer1, I was able to get it to work with a
regex match, though that didn't seem to work when I tried it on Dancer2.
Either way, a regex seems like an unnecessarily complicated way of solving
this.

Thanks,
Timm
