Completely immutable environ is not a good choice from WSGI

WSGI middleware would by definition get the environ and be able to

Yes, not a problem for for middleware -> app communication. But some
app -> middleware communication would be impossible if environ is
completely read-only. I am assuming that "immutable" here means
"read-only".
What if a middleware app puts a key in environ specifically for the app
to write e.g., post-processing parameters? I have a use case for that.
