[cgiapp] OT: CGI::Session and CGI::Simple

["Jason A. Crome" <suppressed>]

Hello,

This is somewhat off-topic, but it's something I noticed in developing 
an app with CGI::Application, and was hoping someone might have some 
insight into this.

In the name of efficiency, I replaced CGI.pm in my application with 
CGI::Simple.  Who doesn't like the thought of doubling the speed of that 
aspect of an app, right?  As I was adding my session handling logic to 
the application, I noticed that every single request to the application 
produced a new session.  Experimentation and tesing ensued, and I 
discovered that CGI::Session was not playing nicely with CGI::Simple. 
As soon as I reverted to CGI.pm, everything magically started working again.

I can't be the only person using CGI::Application, CGI::Session, and 
CGI::Simple, can I?  Has anyone else noticed this?  If so, how have you 
worked around it?

On another, related note, I keep putting off releasing a patched version 
of CGI::Session (as it seems to be neglected), but this might be another 
thing that expedites that.

Any help or insight is appreciated!  Thanks!
