No offense but that's a very Debian-esque answer.

Sure most of us can get PHP5 + FCGI to work, but the problem is a lot of
ubuntu/debian php webapp pacakges (e.g. phpmyadmin, etc.) use the
mod_php5 package in their dependencies rather than the php5 metapackage,
and put php directives in their httdp.conf/.htaccess with no <IfModule>
lines.

You may be right that another package is not needed. As the php5-cgi +
ibapache2-mod-fcgid packages are sufficient. What we need is a clear
policy that php webapp packages should depends on the php5 metapackage
rather than lipapache2-mod-php5.
