[Catalyst] model connect info to come from YAML configuration file

[Hermida, Leandro]

Hi, thank you.  Sorry I am a new user who has just finished the tutorial
and seeing "where I can go next" and I now I am starting to put things
together that the YAML file maps to the namespace and fills the
__PACKAGE__->config() in that namespace.  Cool!!

Is there any way to make the YAML file a bit more "user friendly"?
Meaning that things are more explicit to non-programmers if I were to
deploy that catalyst project somewhere else.  Something like:

MyAppDB:
    driver: mysql
    host: dbserver.domain.com
    port: 3306
    username: dbuser
    password: dbpass

And then taking these parameters and generating the right config in the
model?

Model::MyAppDB:
  schema_class: MyAppDB
  connect_info:
    - dbi:SQLite:myapp.db
    - ''
    - ''
    - AutoCommit: 1
