> We could change the API to map the externals from paths directly to
> scripts, like
> [httpd_db_handlers]
> _mypath = {couch_httpd_external, handle_external_req, "/path/to/my/script"}
> which would be fine by me.
> The current code is like it is because the original implementation was
> designed to have multiple scripts mounted at the /db/_external path.
> Do you mind opening a ticket about this? - I'm happy to write the code
> but I'm supposed to be working on the book right now, so it'll have to
> wait.

> It would appear to be a good solution to allow the flexibility desired while narrowing the number of local.ini edits to accomplish.
