[Catalyst] More about FormBuilder, how do I do more extensive tracing of the Catalyst internal execution path?

>From my previous email on C::P::FormBuilder until now, I have been
reading and playing with the code.  I found a new controller,
Catalyst::Controller::FormBuilder
(http://search.cpan.org/~jcamacho/Catalyst-Controller-FormBuilder-0.02/lib/Catalyst/Controller/FormBuilder.pm)
 which didn't seem to fit into the plugin model.

Call me a little confused, I am not sure that I properly grasp which one
to use for FormBuilder.  For the moment, I am simply going to focus on
the plugin (C::P::FB).

Ok, it looks like what I need to do is (for the Mason view)

  <%args>
   $form	=> undef
  </%args>
  % render the form
  % $form->render;

This doesn't work.  No error/log messages.  Just no output at all.

So how do I turn on more (excessive) debugging so I can trace the path
through the rest of the Catalyst internals?  I am not sure what is
getting lost, and where it is getting lost.

Thanks.
