Hmm. I kind of like it, except several config files are context-specific
and can't be included with simple "!include *.conf". Hmm. They're
probably going to be confusing in any case.. Maybe something like:

# main config, basically says !include conf.d/*.conf
/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

# the actual configs
/etc/dovecot/conf.d/*.conf

# context-specific configs that get referenced in the .conf files 
/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf
/etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf
/etc/dovecot/dovecot-db.conf
/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf

Actually they weren't options. Just two steps. :)
