Although Squid ACLs can do almost anything they are not the simplest

I don't see how {} syntax with lots of "pass none" inside else conditions can
be more intuitive.
Note the following direct 1:1 translation of UFDB syntax into Squid syntax.
Also, the overheads of using the URL redirector interface to Squid place a lot
of limitations on what transaction details can be tested for and additional
processing Squid must perform in order to
utilize the helpers results.
PS. if this is the main pull ufdbGuard has nowdays would you consider joining
the squid dev team and helping the efforts to further improve the squid.conf
syntax, parse, and ACL processing?

Most likely I am biased since I am maintainer of ufdbGuard and
most likely you are biased since you are maintainer of Squid.
I did not want to start a flame of any kind.
