Probably a good idea!  My two concerns would be:

1. performance - last time I tried something similar with a simpler
app (years ago), catalyst was big and not particularly fast, but maybe
now Koha is complicated enough that it wouldn't be a big hit and would
make work much faster;

2. there's currently a challenge for Catalyst in debian (and maybe
Ubuntu as a consequence).  You can read more about it at
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.perl/10351 - maybe
that needs some help too.

Thanks,
