perl-CGI-Prototype - Create a CGI application by subclassing

The core of every CGI application seems to be roughly the same:

*   Analyze the incoming parameters, cookies, and URLs to determine the state
of the application (let's call this "dispatch").
* Based on the current state, analyze the incoming parameters to respond to
any form submitted ("respond").
*   From there, decide what response page should be generated, and produce it
("render").

CGI::Prototype creates a "Class::Prototyped" engine for doing all this, with
the right amount of callback hooks to customize the process.  Because I'm
biased toward Template Toolkit for rendering HTML, I've also integrated that
as my rendering engine of choice. And, being a fan of clean MVC designs, the
classes become the controllers, and the templates become the views, with clean
separation of responsibilities, and "CGI::Prototype" a sort of "archetypal"
controller.
