It doesn't - only on ->setup.

I think Matt meant that you ought to deploy several apps with the
same code and different configurations on different vhosts.

Alternatively you might be able to come up with a scheme where the
controller stuff is all identical, but at runtime you simply switch
models:

Define ACCEPT_CONTEXT in your model to return something that is
sensitive to $c->request->uri->host, by hooking up with a different
schema.

You can probably write this as a model that delegates to
DBIC::Schema.

Note that your authentication/caches/etc will all have to be dealt
with in similar ways. If this is a non issue, perhaps it is easier
than multiple instances and different configs on apache vhosts.
