Late response, but this scenario is why I wrote
https://metacpan.org/release/Catalyst-TraitFor-Component-ConfigPerSite
- which is for handling concern 2 - allows one instance of that
catalyst app to run multiple sites, although you'll need to extend it
for any plugins, views or modules beyond the usual DBIC/TT standard
setup.
