I use a paste composite app where / is a pipeline with deliverance in it 
and /admin is a pipeline with plain repoze. It's not perfect for all use 
cases, but pretty easy to set up.

I'd like the repoze app to be on /, but have some declarative 
configuration to say e.g.

deliverance.ignore = /manage/.*
deliverance.ignore = /foo.*

i.e. a regular expression based thing where deliverance would be told to 
ignore certain incoming url patterns.
