I did some tests with cfgparse 
(http://cfgparse.sourceforge.net/cfgparse-adding-options.html) and it 
can import configuration bits from the default featureserver.cfg file :

 >>> c = cfgparse.ConfigParser()
 >>> c.add_option('type',keys='scribble')
<Option at 0x2d65d70: type>
 >>> c.add_file('featureserver.cfg')
<ConfigFileIni at 0x2d65e70: C:\Python25\featureserver.cfg>
 >>> opts = c.parse()
 >>> print opts.type
DBM

It can also include bits from another file featureserver.cfg files 
AFAICT from the docs.  Of course that would mean modifying server.py and 
downloading an extra egg (cfgparse).

Anyone interested in this ?

Cheers,
