I think that the better solution is to extend the nginx upstream module so

How would you implement this so it doesn't require interaction with an
application to do key lookup?
MogileFS stores the files in
http://mogstored-server:7501/dev1/0/000/000/0000000005.fid
Something has to get what the user's typed in to the mogstored format
This means that a module should only implement the logic to obtain the
backends list, and all the work can be done by Nginx.
However this assumes that on every backend, the URI to the file is the same
(but this should not be a problem, if Nginx is on each node).
I believe it's the same with mogile.
