Use Case
There are Ini-style config files which contain settings with multiple values. They are provided in a Heredoc style like in the following example excerpt of snmptt.ini:
snmptt_conf_files = <<END
/etc/snmp/snmptt.conf
/etc/snmp/snmptt.conf.vendor1
/etc/snmp/snmptt.conf.vendor2
END
Unfortunately managing such a setting is not yet supported.
Proposed solution
I'd like to get such multi-line settings supported. The delimiter to use (e.g. "END") should be customizable by a corresponding parameter. The solution could either make use of additional parameters to ini_setting or introduce a new type ( for example ini_setting_multiline).
Considered alternatives
Just serving the whole file is not suitable in my use case. I also tried to solve it using Augeas but there's no corresponding lens available.
