Comment(by sjamaan):

 Replying to [comment:7 RvdH]:
 > Maybe it is better to support a mime.types-like configuration file, as
 Apache and nginx do. This also allows you to separate logic from
 configuration, keeping your code clean.

 This goes '''completely''' against everything Spiffy stands for. I don't
 think adding a pile of parsing code for a rigid configuration file syntax
 is helpful at all. Spiffy uses Scheme for everything in order to be
 lightweight, simple yet powerful.

 However, feel free to write an egg which parses a file like that and puts
 it in the parameter. That's why Spiffy uses parameters everywhere: so that
 users can easily customise these things.
