I wish i could avoid the above methods being called, but unfortunately the application framework i am working in, calls the above methods (which of course cause the read from STDIN). My particular bit of code (in the application i am working in) is treated as a "plugin" and as such is passed things like the request object, but only after some internal pre-processing.
