One thing I'd like to see is the ability to include one config file
inside another.

The use case for this is to have something like:

    my-machine-base.conf

which contains base configuration stuff. I might then have a couple
of other configs which include the above file:

   my-machine-use-vde-networking.conf
   my-machine-standard-networking.conf

The base config might not even be a valid config by itself, but is
only useful when included with one of these other configs.

Comments?

Cheers,
Erik
