The only people who can currently upload 'CGI::Application' are Jesse
Erlbaum and myself, and we aren't currently being being swayed by this
proposal. What we can't do is prevent a form with a similar name, like
CGI::Application::Plus.

So either way, I don't find much worth discussing about the name of
Rob's proposed project now.

I won't try speak for the rest of the group, whom I'm fond of consulting
about important changes. Personally, if someone wants another hook
location, I'm open to it. I want to see a strong case for it though, 
like "I've got this specific plugin idea, and I needs this specific
hook to work."  I don't see that now. 

If performance is a concern, I want specific benchmarks about why it's
too slow. Performance seems like an area where we already do well
relative to other frameworks, so I find it a surprising place to focus
attention.
