I usually stuff this inside MyApp.pm:

  sub uri_for_action {
      my ($c, $controller, $action, @params) = @_;
      $c->uri_for( $c->controller($controller)->action_for($action), @params );
  }

It works pretty nicely for me. Its only drawback is that if you're
doing some refactoring and decide to move some methods to a new
controller, you'd probably need to change whenever it was called. But
it's grepable and pretty reasonable IMO.
