As a matter of fact, I co-authored one of the very first books on using Perl on the web in 1995. So apparently your main point against CGI.pm is that the ancient knowledge of the CGI protocol is lost? If I'd want a trivial web app that shows me yesterday's SinFest comic, I'd use CGI.pm and 10-20 lines of Perl code. It would work on every web host that has Perl.
