Hello,

This is not really a WSGI question, it's more into general configuration, but I 
don't know of a better place to ask it.

Paster config files allow you to hook up WSGI applications, middleware, and a 
server, plus some (undocumented?) magic configuration of the logging module. 
But what about random components, like a database? Ideally I'd like to specify 
a factory for database connections and give it some parameters; this would 
return a reference to a new database connection. I could then pass this 
reference to my wsgi app or middleware.

Apparently the pattern is to perform this database configuration as part of a 
wsgi middleware, but that feels unnatural. Or one could do this outside of the 
paste configuration file, but that just splits the configuration needlessly 
into several pieces. Am I missing something obvious?

Thanks,
-- Alex
