I don't mind having this, but as Eric pointed out, this won't reload 'on
the fly'. If I were to implement dynamic layers, I would personally
implement them at the 'handler' level, writing my own replacement
handler that looked at the URL to figure out which layers to load before
passing the constructed service off to modPythonHandler or the like. 

I know that users have had luck with this in the past.

If you're still interested in this, let me know, and I'll look into
putting it in.
