Actually, I'd have to say the reason to come up with X-Powered-By is specifically
(well sorta) to get mod_perl advertised no matter what ServerTokens is set to.


People will be upset if you make it hard to hide which modules are
running.  I have met a number of paranoid sysadmins who would blow a
gasket over things like this.  I suggest being conservative here.


I can understand the concerns. I am looking for a suggestion that would put us
on equal footing with what php is doing.


It seems PHP has a flag expose_php that is on by default. So I guess we could just
do the same:


ModPerlExpose On|Off

And have it default to On as well? Would that accomodate people's concerns ?

+1 from here. just remember to bury the way to turn it off, as PHP does ;-)
