I hadn't planned on it, no.  It probably wouldn't be that hard.

Yes, its was a mistake to make wrapper global.  Changing it is somewhat
troublesome, as it'll break existing things without some effort.
There's also the hooking of the local wrapper to the CGI struct... 

Its definitely doable, but haven't seen a big push for it.

Internally, we don't actually use the cgi wrapper, since we don't use
Apache/CGI, but long running servers with our own http server library.
