Would it be possible to make "croak" work properly from within Dancer2 ?
At the moment, "croak" will show a stack-call coming from "Route.pm", and I would like to be able to have it point to my actual routing function (if that's somehow possible with un-named code refs and such).

Simple contrived example:
=======
sub foobar
{
	croak "Something bad happened...";
}

get '/login' => sub {
	foobar();
};
========

The croaked messages appears from:
===========
Something bad happened... at /usr/local/share/perl/5.12.4/Dancer/Route.pm line 240
===========

And the stack-track is:
=========
main in ./bin/app.pl l. 4
Dancer in /usr/local/share/perl/5.12.4/Dancer.pm l. 367
Dancer::Handler in /usr/local/share/perl/5.12.4/Dancer/Handler.pm l. 188
Dancer::Handler::Standalone in /usr/local/share/perl/5.12.4/Dancer/Handler/Standalone.pm l. 36
HTTP::Server::Simple in /usr/local/share/perl/5.12.4/HTTP/Server/Simple.pm l. 271
HTTP::Server::Simple in /usr/local/share/perl/5.12.4/HTTP/Server/Simple.pm l. 307
HTTP::Server::Simple in /usr/local/share/perl/5.12.4/HTTP/Server/Simple.pm l. 402
HTTP::Server::Simple::PSGI in /usr/local/share/perl/5.12.4/HTTP/Server/Simple/PSGI.pm l. 103
HTTP::Server::Simple::PSGI in /usr/local/share/perl/5.12.4/HTTP/Server/Simple/PSGI.pm l. 103
Dancer::Handler in /usr/local/share/perl/5.12.4/Dancer/Handler.pm l. 111
Dancer::Handler in /usr/local/share/perl/5.12.4/Dancer/Handler.pm l. 72
Dancer::Handler in /usr/local/share/perl/5.12.4/Dancer/Handler.pm l. 93
Dancer::Object in /usr/local/share/perl/5.12.4/Dancer/Object.pm l. 15
Dancer::Error in /usr/local/share/perl/5.12.4/Dancer/Error.pm l. 36
Dancer::Error in /usr/local/share/perl/5.12.4/Dancer/Error.pm l. 254
=========
Which makes it hard to debug...

So currently, all my subs use "die" instead of "croak", but this doesn't seem right (and also doesn't work with 3rd-party code that uses croak).
