 Hi,

 I'd like to be able to pass a director to another director as a backend,
 for example, using the fallback director to take 2 servers in a round-
 robin director before falling back to a 3rd servers.

 eg.

 {{{
 director frontend round-robin {
   { .backend = web1; }
   { .backend = web2; }
 }

 director default fallback {
   { .backend = frontend; }
   { .backend = web3; } // will only be used if servers in 'frontend'
 director are unhealthy.
 }
 }}}
