MasonX::WebApp works with Mason to let you do processing before Mason is ever
invoked. There are a number of things that one might want to do:
* Argument munging
You might want to make sure all incoming arguments are UTF-8 encoded.
Or you might want to create some objects which Mason will see as
incoming arguments. For example, a "user_id" parameter could be turned
into a user object.
* Handle requests without Mason
If you're not generating output for the browser other than a redirect,
then there's no reason to use Mason. You can use a MasonX::WebApp
subclass to handle all form submissions, for example.
This has the added benefit of making it easier to preload this code
once during server startup.
* And others ...
