Actually in 2.0 you can even implement this in a HeaderParser handler. Here is such an example:in Apache/mod_perl 2.0, you can write an input filter that _does_ allowyoudo parse the Request Line yourself. then again, you can write a protocol handler for any protocol you can dream up, so there's no reason to mess with HTTP :)

Here is an example of the input filter that modifies the request headers (as suggested by Geoff):
