Hiding it entirely isn't what I have in mind,  just the 
modules common to both mp1 and mp2.  Indexing everything 
else, especially Apache2 and the new ModPerl::* stuff,
might be a workable compromise.

It also allows time for the now-manifest itching to 
become productive scratching.  Maybe CPAN gets fixed,
maybe folks upgrade their mp1 modules to support
both mp1 and mp2, or maybe those folks just migrate 
wholesale to mp2.  Or maybe some enlightened person 
will wander in and show us all a demonstrably better 
way to handle the CPAN situation.  Or maybe I'm wrong, 
and the extended itching turns out to be just more 
bitching.  Who knows?
