I'll create a parser type for that then. IMO the existing acl file
inclusion method is quite useful - because the contents of the file
don't need the acl foo bar prefix for each line. This makes script
generated files easier. So I'd like to keep that method around. If
someone wants to suggest a more intuitive syntax for triggering it (ie
acl foo bar source = /path/to/file) or whatever, that's ok by me too,
and I'll endeavour to implement that.
