Tirex currently allows any zoom level, if you ask for zoom level 3172 it will
do that. I am working on making the zoom level range configurable, so Tirex
will check this in the future.

There is a limit of what can be done sensibly with the current metatile
filename scheme that needs to be addressed at some point.

Can be done with mod_rewrite or so.

Thats going to be difficult.

I am not sure the whole tile rendering and caching stuff makes sense for an
environment with possibly hundreds of map styles. Maybe you can just use UMN
mapserver and WMS with a small PHP mapscript wrapper. That can do all that.
