augmenting the Request object

[Donald Ball <ba...@webslingerZ.com>]

hey guys. i've got a patch that adds a new method to the Request object -
getCookieMap. does what it say, returns the Cookies in a Map. i find it to
be helpful and i'd like to commit it, but i wanted to check and see what
the party line was on augmenting the Request object. as long as the
augmented methods are implemented without resorting to any cocoon-specific
api's or objects, does anyone have a problem with adding new methods to
the Request object? if not, should the methods be named specially to avoid
possible conflicts with future servlet api's? (e.g. getXCookieMap() or
something).

No, I have no objection against augmenting the Request object as long as
the methods are valuable for everyone.
But I would like to have the interfaces fixed for the beta 2.
