Have you looked at CGI::Form that already exists?  It would be a good
basis.  Currently, it is based on CGI::Request but should be able to
use Apache::Request one would expect.

I think the name CGI::Form is appropriate, since the forms are part of
the CGI protocol, not anything mod_perl or Apache sepecific.
CGI::Form seems to be an abandoned module, so I'm sure you can get
permission to adopt it and extend it.

That's my personal recommendation.
