I guess that is certainly enough reason not to include them in Nginx - and thank you for making a very good alternative available, I certainly couldn't do any better!

My question, originally, was about whether I had correctly understood how to construct the conf file; or whether it could be done more efficiently and I had not understood how to do that.

However, my config works and it was a lot easier than Apache - maybe I should just count my blessings.
