Thank you for responding, Olemis.
My reason for desiring to do things this way is simple: I'm running Trac on
Heroku, where there is a convention of keeping all private or
environment-specific data in config variables.
I can not deploy any files to Heroku without checking them into version
control, and I'd like to avoid checking my database string into version
control.
Heroku provides the database string as an environmental variable, though,
so if anyone has any idea how I can go about resolving my problem the way
I'd like to, I'd really appreciate some pointers.
