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. Edgar
