This should be:

http://site/cgi-bin/oi2.cgi/user/NewUser/?foo=bar

We take everything between 'oi2.cgi' and the query string as the
PATH_INFO and use that for the actual URL request. (See lines 35-43 of
OI2::Request::CGI for the details.)

Yes, you'll need to restart the daemon.

The quickest development turnaround would be CGI, since it will load and
rebuild everything for every request you don't need to worry about
reloading. But if you're working on a fast machine restarting an
Apache/mod_perl process can be quite quick. My main development machine
(P3/1Ghz/512MB) is fast enough to do Apache/mod_perl restarts very
often. (And keeping the debugging level at INFO or above helps...)
