Piling on - I like this one too.  I'd use it.

Theoretically then you'd also need to run fewer checks and/or get quicker convergence as a bonus. ;)

Clusters/Macros: As someone who has 25+ backends per service and 6-7 services, 
this would be very nice.  I would also anticipate this would not be difficult 
to implement.

+1 on the cluster/macro idea. Yeah, that's a really good 2.7 idea. I
could really use that and get rid of my m4 templates.

I'll second the "config reload" going around...

I would also add a request to be able to define clusters or such of
servers....

An example of this would be like:

Cluster
          Name PROD
          BackEnd
                  Address 192.168.1.20
                  Port 80
          End

          BackEnd
                  Address 192.168.1.21
                  Port 80
          End
End

Cluster
          Name TEST
          BackEnd
                  Address 192.168.1.22
                  Port 80
          End

          BackEnd
                  Address 192.168.1.23
                  Port 80
          End
End

... later in the config file ...

Service
          URL "^/something.*"
          HeadRequire     "Host:.*blah.something.edu.*"
          BackEndCluster PROD
End

Service
          URL "^/bork.*"
          HeadRequire     "Host:.*bork.something.edu.*"
          BackEndCluster PROD
End

Service
          URL "^/.*"
          HeadRequire     "Host:.*foo.edu.*"
          BackEndCluster TEST

          BackEnd
                  Address 192.168.1.26
                  Port 80
          End
          # Would end up sending to 1.22 1.23 and 1.26 (cluster +
local
defined)
End



etc.. etc...


That would make maintaining backend server pools/clusters VASTLY
easier.

Thanks for considering!

Hallo everybody

New year, new version: we declare open the wish-list for 2.7
features.
Please reply to this with your list of enhancements/patches/wishes.

Please feel also free to offer comments (supportive or not, as the
case
may be) on items that others may post. The more support for a
feature, the better its chances of making it into 2.7.

Please do NOT post patches in reply - a short description is quite
enough. You can mail me directly if you want to offer patches.
