* There is a single handler.
* The handler includes multiple apps.
* Any serializer, hook and route (and a few other components) can global.
* They affect each other. A hook affects all routes across all apps.

* A runner is a singleton since only one runner can exist at any given time.
* A server is a singleton since only one server can exist at any given time.
(a concept of multiple runners, each running multiple servers, sounds
interesting, but unfeasible at the moment)
* A server can include multiple Apps. Apps are basically packages with Dancer
code.
* Each app can include serializers, hooks, routes, and more.
* Each serializer, hook and route is confined to that app. Nothing is shared.
