Depends on what you want to do.  The core handler can always do the
heavy lifting for you, and better yet, if you replace the core
when serving sql data or some other source, your 'filter' can still
be run against the data.

If your module -is- a data store (think an sql database, a compressed
archive system, or something like that), then it most definitely
should be a handler.
