I've completed the Big Refactoring of the ngx_echo core in the git HEAD:

    http://github.com/agentzh/echo-nginx-module/

I think the new implementation of echo_location, echo_subrequest,
echo_sleep, and echo_read_request_body finally fit reasonably well
with the nginx event model as well as Igor's way of thinking :)

I'll make a new release (v0.29) to include this major update once
we've done more extensive testing.

This refactoring also paves a way to implementing the sequential
subrequest support in ngx_lua and "subrequests in subrequests" support
in ngx_srcache :)

If anybody experiences any regressions with the git HEAD of the
ngx_echo module, please let me know :)

Thanks!
