sorry for the late reply.

without auto_rest set, C::A::D works with no rm defined in the dispatch rule and set the rm to the startmode if it is set in the dispatched module. 

'/people/:people/:rm?' => { app => 'User' },

with auto_rest and no rm => in dispatch rule, as I said in my previous email, C::A::D sets the rm to $rm_HTTP_METHOD which becomes _GET _PUT etc...
