I ended up sub classing CA::Dispatch::Regexp and overriding _parse_path so I
could do:

    My::Dispatcher->dispatch(
                 prefix  => 'My::App::Dashboard',
                 table   => [
                             qr|/|           => { app => 'Home' },
                             qr|/login|   => { app => 'Login::Ajax' },
                 ],
         );
