Is there a reason you trimmed out my points about specifying "classes"
as a list of data (host, db, user) and using it in host lines? :-)

"Simplifying specifying multiple databases" in the sense of if a
particular line has to list 10 databases, 10 users, and 10 hostnames, it
would be most convenient to specify 3 "classes" with 10 records each,
followed by one host line, instead of have 10 lines with 20 entries on
it or 1000 lines... :-)

Cheers,
