> For completeness, the req.args attribute should be modifiable. Updating req.args i
s done in modules like mod_rewrite and so something that emulates that may find it u
seful. It also may be necessary when wishing to interact with mod_proxy where one wa
nts
to add additional query args to the request as it is passed through to the downstream web se
rver.
> One use within mod_python itself may be to allow GET style query args when a POST 
request has been submitted to be wiped out before util.FieldStorage is used to proce
ss form fields. This would avoid using the hack approach of creating a wrapper class
 ar
ound the request object which returns an empty string when req.args is acces
sed.
