[Catalyst] What's the best way to exclude static requests from needing user to log in?

[Nickolay Platonov]

and I'm using this to implicitly specify which actions in controllers
require authorization:

#=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
#Controller

sub update :Local :ActionClass('+Travel::Action::AuthorizationRequired') {
    my ( $self, $c ) =3D @_;

    my $token =3D $c->req->params->{'token'};
    ..........
}

#=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
#AuthorizationRequired Action

sub execute {
    my $self =3D shift;
    my ( $controller, $c ) =3D @_;

    if ( !$c->user_exists() ) {

        $c->stash->{template} =3D "auth_required.tt2";

        $c->detach('View::TT');
    }

    $self->NEXT::execute( @_ );
};
