If you really want to tap into that stuff after Init but before Page_Load(),
you can implement IPostBackDataHandler (in a web control, I am not sure if
you can do that with a Page control itself) and wait for a call from the
runtime which will call a LoadPostData which gives you a chance to see all
that.
Or you can write a HTTP module to that.
