Yes, you can do that, but I don't think that CPAN will find and
install CGI::Application 4.00_2 automatically. But that doesn't stop
a user from installing it manually.
I would suggest also putting a Beta tag on the module by adding a _1
to the version as well, since currently you would be requiring a Beta
module.
