it would not only be nice, request() is documented to behave this way :)

nice work philippe :)

the only thing that concerns me here is the stability this may take away 
from the 1.0 tree for very little value - although stuff like Apache::Filter 
might benefit from this feature, I'm not sure that adding it now is worth 
it, since any interested modules are becoming deprecated in 2.0.

now, making this happen in 2.0... :)

in any case, that's not a vote either way, just something to consider.
