I have a bunch of other patches that form my branch of pound. (Still based on 
2.5 actually)  Things you'd see in other software... I'll submit them here for 
other people to chime in on.  These are in my git repo and I could provide 
patches with little effort.

1) Include and IncludeDir directives... Ability to merge other config files, 
use conf.d style configuration, etc.  Note that this alone could handle the 
cluster config mentioned elsewhere... Instead of a cluster config construct, 
just put your cluster backends in a conf file and Include it multiple times.
2) ForceHTTP10/ssl unclean shutdown functionality based on user agent... 
Functionality generally accepted as needed for older versions of IE and browser 
workarounds, present in apache and other web servers.
3) Socket ownership patch - allow config directives to set the owner, owner 
group, and filesystem mode bits of the control socket when it is created.
4) PCRE-based dynamic redirects - i.e. ability to do a redirect backend that 
can do rudimentary mod_rewrite type things... More specifically create a 
destination URL based on the source URL.
5) NoSSL redirect patch - for redirecting a user using a non-ssl connection to 
a SSL port.  (originally from 
http://hg.openpanel.com/pound-sslpatched/raw-rev/90a2b1ae6bf4, but cleaned up)

I've been using these for years and would love to have them included in the 
main product.
