Ok. there's going to be a fair bit to do in order to get DBIC as a  
full-fledged model under Jifty, especially if you want it to be able  
to take advantage of jifty's schema declarations and  
autoversioning.   The first thing to do is probably to look at  
Jifty::Action::Record and see how it introspects model classes. The  
code could use some cleanup and refactoring ot make it easier to slot  
in another model class.  DBIC also doesn't really have the concept of  
first-class collection objects like Jifty::DBI.  To really take  
advantage of the jifty magic, I suspect we'd want a wrapper layer to  
provide them.

I guess the question I should be asking is "what do you want out of  
DBIC that you don't get from JDBI?" as that will significantly impact  
how to do the mapping.

Best,
Jesse
