Varnish key/value store

From "Smart Pre-Fetching: Varnish @ Yakaz.com by Pierre-Gilles Mialon, Yakaz.com"

Use varnish as a memcached with HTTP interface. Push data updates directly into the cache without having to buffer them outside varnish and pulling them through a backend.

	* If your directory structure is deep, it'll have to reinitialize inotify after each change.
