The new version of the echo module looks great, and it's a very good source

Glad to hear that :)
I think that would be amazing if the echo module could be used to "pipe"
echo directives to an upstream, in order to create completely custom queries
for example, instead of echoing data back to the user.
This is a very intriguing idea and I can see the benefits of debugging
custom TCP upstream modules :)
Just to confirm my understanding, I'd ask first...are you suggesting a
telnet module for nginx upstreams? *grin*
Do you think that would be feasible ?
Given the flexibility of the nginx core, I'd say "yes" :)
To be honest, I happen to be thinking about mudding with the
ngx_http_upstream infrastructure a bit more these days ;)
