Well, the existing admin API (which I'm shockingly familiar with ...) only
works on a running system. What we need is a system that can hook up a DSL
config system at startup. I've been thinking a lot about this, what I've been
meaning to do is to make a Lua system that generates records.config,
remap.config, parent.config, cache.config etc. That would be step one towards
profit I think. E.g. Lua code like
{code}
domain{
name = { ogre.com, www.ogre.com},
path = { /, function
local rec = rec
rec.url_remap.pristine_host_hdr = 0
{code}
or some such, I need to think some more about how this actually works in Lua
:). But it's syntax of passing tables are function parameters without requiring
() makes for neat DSL syntax I think.
This could easily include support for different plugins (regex_remap,
header_filter, remap_conf etc.), and generate those plugin config files as well.
Expose Configuration API such that config files can be written (or scripted)
in a glue-language such as Lua

To unify and simplify our configuration it would be great to have them in a
script language.
Lua is an ideal candidate as it is easy to embed and it would make for a
wonderful - and powerful DSL.
