I agree totally on making the warning BIG & very VISIBLE.
I do not want to keep the old behavior as default though,
as I believe the defaults should be set to be preferred
or "standard" configs.

While we are talking about good configs, how about making
UseStrict 1 the default at the same time?!  This would be of
great benefit to developers in the long term, but the migration
pains would be great.  This is one of the greatest pains
for mod_perl development generally, when one does not have
"use strict" & ends up with odd globals shared.

We can have beta releases like 2.90_01 that won't get
installed by CPAN, and which would lead up to 3.00 stable
release.  The big 3.00 release should give developers enough
pause to read the CHANGES before installing I would hope.
