FEATURE REQUEST - Custom rewrite rules for each vhost

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I'm looking for a way to utilise this module to also provide custom rewrite
rules for each vhost, in a similar way that the custom php config for each
host works.

What would be ideal would be to just use the existing mod_rewrite rule
formatting in a text field.

Example:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} site1.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://newsite.site2.com/ [R,L]
...could become...
'RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} site1.com$ [NC]', 'RewriteRule ^(.*)
http://newsite.site2.com/ [R,L]'

Is this at all feasable and/or possible?

Do you need redirection from one site to another? It is possible, but
full support for mod_rewrite is to complicated.

To begin, rewriting from one site to another is probably my first challange; it 
would
account for 80% of my redirect cases.

I am pretty sure that I would probably need multiple rewrite rules for each 
virtual
host (eg. add 'www' to the front of many urls, plus also write based on url or 
query
string)

That being said, full mod_rewrite support would be awesome, but as you said,
complicated :)

Would there be a way to just 'inject' a block of apache config in for each host?

To change settings for mod_rewrite on fly is complicated task, it is simpler to
modify mod_rewrite to retrieve data from DB or incorporate mod_rewrite in my 
module.
I'll try to add simple rewrite/redirect support similar to mod_rewrite as
expiremental feature.

"Injection" block of apache config on fly is possible (htaccess works), but to 
do all
work in third party module without changes in apache's sources is a very 
complicated
task and performance of such solution will be very poor.
