Right... But if your interface only relies on calling $x->param() then
it can be based on any CGI-ish module that provides that interface.  I
think this will be a big win.  I can't imagine any other interface
you'd need to create this module, and that's only for the stickyness
of it.

As for borrowing code, go for it, but be sure to attribute it in both
the code and the documentation.  Most modules are distributed under
the Perl license, which is quite liberal.

I'd suggest making the calling convention require named parameters and
require it to be an object rather than a function call interface.
