Sorry for my confusion, but can you explain a bit more what Igor plans? Will we
be able to embed script directly into nginx.conf? Is mod_rewrite going away in
favor of http_script_module?

And when would the script block? Would it be accessing disk or the network to
get configuration? It might be nice especially for large sites to store
configuration information in an external file or database, and then access it
with an embedded script.
