Yeah, pretty simple;-)

Well, I found it somewhat elegant... as it works;-)

It's textual only, directives are not parsed. This allow to substitute
arguments and to parse after that, and to avoid assumptions about the
lexical structure of the configuration file.

The support from http_core is really minimal. Thus I'm afraid there is no
'elegant' and 'intelligent' solution without relying on some cooperation
from the module themselves, and that could not be generic nor parametric.

Have a nice day,
