=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is the C<DBIx::Class> model class for Catalyst. Whilst it allows you to
use DBIC as your model in Catalyst, it does not make your tables classes
Catalyst-specific, so you can still use them in a non-Catalyst context.

=head2 new

Catalystifies DBIx::Class and makes the model model class a component.
