[cgiapp] TestApps

Even if I would delete the file, the namespace I had chosen for the .pm test
file would be registered for me. Search for CGIAPP_TestApp2 on cpan and you
will see what I mean.

I would like to avoid this namespace pollution, at least at this level, by
introducing a lower level namespace exactly for such things.

Why do you need a test name space. Is this just to check the formatting of
the upload file? http://perlmonks.org/?node_id=596075 works reasonably well
for that. Also there is a  way in PAUSE of scheduling files for deletion.
That is a good thing as I am sure noone wants really old versions hanging
around for every module.
