[Dancer-users] reusing config.yml with environments

[Иван Бессарабов]

For what I know the dancer has no user friendly way of using config
values outside dancer webapp.
I'm just using YAML to manually parse config. I think this is the part
where the dancer should help the user.

I hope that somebody will write code that will solve this small issue
(as we know there is a great myth about dancer, that one should only
suggest plugin in the mail list and sooner or later the code will be
on cpan =).
