KittenFarm itself is a runnable application; the framework, such as it is,
is all in the Catalyst::Plugin::ComponentView class included in the tree.

It's still highly experimental though; IE doesn't like the current JS (which,
given it's Prototype-based, probably indicates a stupid mistake on my part)
and the only CRUD operation that works is updates, but it's getting there. I'm
ignoring it for the moment while we prep for DBIx::Class 0.03, which is now
overdue because I haven't dealt with a couple of submitted tests and patches
yet ...
