I once did a one-off mod of Apache::Session to do just this but eventually gave up and just changed my table names. It was to hard to keep in sync with new releases of Apache::Session and I don't have enough faith in my ability to send a real patch :)
So I think its a natural path. When you create your session object send it some args for its table name as well as field names, that would give a lot of flexiblity as well as allowing apache::session to morph into existing data structures.
