Re: [syslog-ng]include file feature?

It's nice to be flexible, but I think the init.d paradigm, which relies on tricks of alphabetical filename sorting to enforce order at the expense of readability and managability, should be retired, not expanded. The joy of syslog-ng is that it has a clean, readable, and predictable configuration file. An extension for reading in include files would hopefully preserve those attributes.
