Hi Peter,
For myself, I don't think I care where additional_data gets called but
I'm not sure why you want to use it.
If you want additional model-related data in the template, can't you
just add it in the action ($r->template_vars->{whatever} = xxx)?
Or just add it directly to the object (sub whatever { return xxx })?
Cheers, Dave
