An advanced presentation of the concepts, mechanisms, and how they
_really_ work, would be great.
Tutorials are good for beginners, cookbooks are good for quickly solving
a specific, small problem, but if you have a large, complex application
and want to build on the long-term, you need an in-depth understanding
of the architecture, of the possible choices, and their implications. 
The excellent Manual::ExtendingCatalyst is a good start on this respect.
