	I like it in principle .. I don't think it needs to talk to
	the running server so much as it needs to grok the config
	files that the server used to start.  Any time we start
	talking about adding a module to apache, we're talking about
	a far more difficult task.  Don't get me wrong .. I like 
	the idea, it would just take more time to implement.

	The example below is nice in that it would allow you to 
	configure your server using a standard telnet connection,
	and is also simple enough to make a nice GUI to wrap
	it in.  It's very conducive to bulk changes too .. I could
	generate a perl script to bulk add Aliases for example using
	this paradigm in a really short amount of time.
