HTTP is stateless.  The client can make as many requests as it likes
and your Dancer app will see them as separate requests.

The 'before' hook fires for every request.  If you want to limit a
hook to particular routes, you have to write that logic yourself in
the hook subroutine or else wrap the route handlers instead of using a
before hook.
