access to the form input and cookie data without parsing it
themselves. This relieves some strain, especially when the GET or POST
data is required by numerous handlers along the way.

NOTES

It should be noted that Apache::Request 0.3103 and above now offers
the Apache::Request->instance() method, which offers the ability
to access the same Apache::Request object over and over again.
While the availability of instance() does absorb the problems that
prompted Apache::RequestNotes, namely the ability to read from POST
more than once, you still have to parse the various data yourself.
Thus, the utility of Apache::RequestNotes is now simply the ability
to have a common API for all your handlers to use.

Apache::RequestNotes can really be called from just about any request
phase.  Thus, if you need to postpone data parsing until after uri 
translation, using RequestNotes as a PerlFixupHandler should work
just fine.  Keep in mind that Apache::RequestNotes returns OK, which
would preclude it's use in conjuction with other PerlTransHandlers
and PerlTypeHandlers (but it doesn't really belong there anyway).
