Yes, you're right. In a FCGI_GET_VALUES request, the backend can send
arbitrary name-value-pairs. Unfortunately there is no standard way to tell the
frontend that this feature is supported. Maybe, making the name (and expected
value) of this name-value-pair configurable in mod_fcgid could be a reasonable
way.
