If I change the Person class to inherit from Jifty::Record (or rather
APPLICATION::Record), that error changes to

WARN - number!!update isn't a valid field for
MyWeblog::Action::Signup=HASH(0x9452590)
WARN - Use of uninitialized value in join or string at
/home/jpeacock/tmp/MyWeblog/share/web/templates/signup line 13.

and if I ignore the warning and try and create a user anyways, I see:

WARN - DBD::SQLite::st execute failed: people.number may not be NULL(1) at
dbdimp.c line 398 at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/Jifty/DBI/Handle.pm line 458.

which shows that it is targeting the correct table.  I've narrowed it down to
the fact that Jifty::Plugin::Login::Action::Signup::arguments cleanses the
arguments of all but the base four.  You are calling that via SUPER in your own
Signup.pm, so that would explain why you can't see any additional arguments.

However, what I haven't worked out is what to do about it... :(
