I think header_props() can go away as long as there's a header_clear() or something similar incase you want to clobber other headers.

I think we should drop 'CGI' from the name. It has a very negative connotation with some people. They think that CGI scripts are 1990's web even though almost all dynamic web sites operate over the CGI protocol. Web::Application?
