Details

I don't see a documented method to add a new cgi script in an extension.  Moreover, it appears the custom cgi must be installed in the top directory (as opposed to under the "web" extension subdir).

Currently, my Extension.pm auto-copies the cgi script into the top directory whenever the file changes or is missing.  But there ought to be a better way.

In addition, if the cgi process a template in the extension, then the t/004template.t runtests fails because the test doesn't look in the extension template directory.
