Hey,
I believe pretty much any of the HTTP variables are allowed..
http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/api/Apache.html#_r_E_gt_header_in___header_name____value___
also check the headers_in (with an S) so get the hash of client
request headers.. Those can be fed to header_in

Oh, wow, that's actually just what I was looking for. Is that
case-sensitive? I'd like to stop using %ENV altogether, but the stuff
in %ENV is scattered in several different places and I don't always
know where to find it ($r->header_in('something'), $r->document_root,
$s->port, etc.)
Is there some kind of mapping somewhere that tells you where to find
the stuff that you'd find in %ENV under CGI? It wasn't in the
CGI->mod_perl porting guide.
Anyway, thanks for the tip.
