in thread CGI/Mod Perl Application Design philosophy - which way do we go?

What if you have multiple forms posting to the same cgi script? Using the referrer as a dimension seems like a bad idea.

Does it not also increase debugging time? For my scripts, I can type in the params I want to test with right into my browsers url bar. Using referrer requires you to always go through the proper steps.

Also, what happens when your site layout changes?
