Forgive me for ranting, but...

I can understand why you would find that PHP is to unflexible for this task, but things like XML or YAML or even JSON could easily be adapted for this, and in doing so, you could make the world a better place by not adding to the heaps of buggy parsers for buggy utility language that languishes on millions of servers around the world.

Please consider it.
