A little while ago, Basant Kukreja published mod_sed under the

than a mere string-or-regexp search-and-replace filter:

I happen to know that Basant and Sun will be happy for us
to adopt mod_sed, and I think that with that blog entry
reworked into a howto doc, it'll add real value to httpd.

Any thoughts on dropping it in to trunk, with a view
to including it as standard in 2.4 in due course?

I have no objection.

"mod_sed is much more than a mere string-or-regexp search-and-replace"

It's nice to see my objections to an earlier module name reinforced by
a practical example of why only mod_sed deserves the "sed" designation :)
