I would like to use an official CGI.pm, if one is available.
Please forget about the "official". Perl 6 will hopefully have multiple
implementations, and they are all "official" if they pass the test suite.
From what I've gathered so far, Perl 6 core will only be shipped with
the modules needed to install more modules, for which CGI certainly
isn't needed.
Just as a word of explanation for Elyse, the reasoning I saw behind
this was, if we ship it with few enough modules, Systems Administrators will
be forced to choose the modules they need, rather than just installing the
basics and never installing anything else. What I (wearing my Sysadmin hat)
predict will happen is that someone will bundle them into "distros" (much like
the Linux distros), and sysadmins will select a distro instead of going with
the bare bones.
