That's what I meant: a per map configuration.
Which would ATM just be an extension of the current maps (maps.xml) 
configuration.

There is an auto map configuration definition:

http://mapbox.com/wax/tilejson.html

I suspect that's one would want to cache the results.
But that's work for the future...
ATM I don't know anyone using it apart from mapbox.

Luckily I working on the 'enlarge the last level' - there are currently some 
bugs / limitations on it working ATM.
I should have it fixed over the weekend.
