My Catalyst::Example::InstantCRUD can be viewed as an early attempt at
doing this.  It is now just a CRUD + browsing (with paging and sort)
but the previous version could generate authentication code for the
application, unfortunately now it is so obsolete that I removed it.

I am now also waiting for the new helper infrastructure - but perhaps
it could be made more user friendly as a wizard, web based or a Padre
plugin.
