(well sorta) to get mod_perl advertised no matter what ServerTokens is set to.

People will be upset if you make it hard to hide which modules are running. I have met a number of paranoid sysadmins who would blow a gasket over things like this. I suggest being conservative here.

I can understand the concerns. I am looking for a suggestion that would put us on equal footing with what php is doing.

It seems PHP has a flag expose_php that is on by default. So I guess we could 
just
do the same:

ModPerlExpose On|Off

And have it default to On as well? Would that accomodate people's concerns ?
