[imp] Custom Options

[Mike Coughlan]

We too will be forced to use a special perl API for filtering.  I am very
interested in seeing this.  If you have a timeline for even just sharing it,
that would be helpful.

Can you tell me what files you touched to do this?  Is the horde code now a
swiss cheese of patches, or were you able to isolate it to a few horde
files, and your new perl code?

Thanks
