How are you going to handle multiple values for the same parameter? 
With CGI.pm, you can say
  @values = $q->param("foo");

Are you going to make the values of %CGI listrefs?  That should have
been spelled out before you froze the RFC.  Also, it seems a bit
inconvenient if you always have to say C<$CGI{bar}[0]> when you just
want one value.

Or would you rather have %CGI magically notice what context it's in? 
*Shudder*
