  Yeah, I already added to the TODO list for 0.7:

    http://www.cherokee-project.com/bugs/login/browser/cherokee/trunk/TODO

  Actually, it's something I'd use in my server, so I suppose it's
  kind of the same of the rest of the people.

  handler_cgi_base seems to be the perfect place for it. In that way,
  the fcgi, scgi and cgi handlers would inherit it.  Although I'm not
  quite sure we're on time for the 0.6 release.  We ought to release
  0.6.0 as soon as possible rather than continue adding new features,
  it's already full of new stuff.
