That is a minor quibble; certainly we could create a 
vacuous mod_perl2 module if we really wanted to.

The same way it did before the mp2 candidates started showing up on
CPAN.  If your next release of Apache-Scoreboard used this patch
in its META.yml

  requires:
      Apache::Test           1.10
-     mod_perl:              1.9917
+     mod_perl2:             2.00  


and the mp2 final release provided the mod_perl2 package, 
that'd do exactly what you wanted, no?
