We need to work on a better configuration file format.
It needs to:
Allow setting of arbitrary options, which may be plugin-specific
Easy for admins to write (I'm looking at you ejabberd)
Sensible errors when the config file is syntactically incorrect (I'm
looking at you again, ejabberd)
I have some ideas, so please discuss with me first before working on this one.

I would really prefer it not be code. That is, it should always be possible to
display it in an admin web interface. (We can't do have that if the configuration
supports code constructs like loops, functions, etc)

Still need to support more formats, but this is taken care of for alpha.
