It'd be less quoting madness by not trying to do magic in the ban
parser:
ban("req.url == " + req.url);
looks a whole lot more sane than:
ban("req.url == req.url");
where then req.url doesn't mean the same thing on the left and right
hand sides.
(Unless I've misunderstood something about what the current code does).
Or are you worried about the case of req.url (or whatever you ban on)
containing &&, || and similar characters? Can we solve that by having a
function which escapes anything special to bans, so we can do:
ban("req.url == " + ban_escape(req.url));
?
Cheers,
