Excellent thanks!
This kind of setup is dangerous if you have users who can put .mpl scripts anywhere inside of the document tree 'cause those scripts will run with the
If they only have access to /home/user it would be cool right?

same permissions that your own scripts run with. If you can control the whole
document tree it's not that bad.
mod_perl scripts are run with the permissions of the user correct? IE if Apache its 'nobody' or otherwsie (getpwuid($>))[0]

Sorry to top post...
So is it (the subject/original email below) impossible then?
Or is it possible just not advisable?

Hello group!
Super mod_perl newbie here :)
I was wondering if its possible to setup mod_perl in httpd.conf with a File Extension Configuration instead of a Path Configuration.
IE - everything with the .mpl extension is run under mod_perl instead of everything in /perl/ being run under mod_perl...
Something like:
AddHandler mod_perl-script .mpl
If it is possible what benefits/problems/issues would there be to think about vs a Path configuration?
Where might I find good documentation about how to do this and what issues you'd encounter/have to consider (I didn't see anything at perl.apache.org... which I'm sure is my fault ;p )?
TIA
