[Catalyst] Just a hint on using Roles

Hi
I am looking at creating a generic Breadcrumb module to use with
Catalyst. The basic idea being that some controllers will 'reset' a
breadcrumb path back to the start (for example when clicking on a main
menu) and some controllers will append to the existing breadcrumb.
e.g.
Main menu item linking to /users will display a list of all users (reset
breadcrumb)
Clicking on a link on that page to go to /user/123 will append the new
URI to the breadcrumb, /user/123/edit appends again. etc.
I would then be able to create a BreadCrumb Role that could be used with
some of my controllers to maintain a breadcrumb structure on the stash
that could then be used in my templates?
ISTM that this is an ideal application of Roles? I would welcome
comments if this is a sensible approach and I can research the details
further myself.
Regards
Ian
