I've been working on a Maypole::Plugin::Redirect. I wrote this because I wanted
A) to say "return $r->redirect('table/action/')" to redirect ANYWHERE in my app
and not worry about objects, templates, etc.
B) And later in another request say "return $r->from_redirect()" and get back
to where i came from.
There's a short discussion on this in archives this month or last. I've
attached my module. For what you want to do it works very good. In do_edit you
would say something like: "return $r->redirect('mytable/list');" and it would
be just as if you hit a link to list (but no actual http request).
For some of the more advanced functionality, its still needs some work. Its a
good start though. I'd love some help with it and feedback and opinions and
ideas . . .
Thanks
