Now that we have a forum for bridges, I'd like to propose renaming the
Perl bridge to something else.

Why:
Because at ApacheCon, I was appproached by someine interested in this bridge
but couldn't make it run on the Mac platform (there's a bug in there, I'll
create a JIRA issue as soon as I have some time).
I investigated the code for him and discovered that the bridge is not in *any*
way really tied to Perl !
It just tries to emulate a cgi-bin environment by creating environment variables
and executing an external process.

What:
I propose we change the perl bridge to a generic CgiScriptBridge capable of
handling any script-basd cgi. This would dramatically broaden the usefulness of
such bridge enabling perl, php, python, shell scripts to be run in this way.
