Not sure why this is in there - Luke might know.

I think Brice wrote this one. I don't know if it was updated for
0.25.x or if it needed to be.

Think it would be useful in the examples directory.

Not sure this would be overly useful for most people but with some
more documentation might be useful - not sure it still works though
either.

There was a reason for this - Luke will know.

Ditto.

Agree and think that'd be useful.

Yeah - needs some more documentation.

I'd like to make this a bit more embedded into Puppet but I'm trying
to puzzle out how currently.  Perhaps allow a command line flag to
create config.ru depending on versions.
