Only if it's really necessary, which doesn't appear to be the case here.

I find the .ini version (the one I submitted) way, way easier to read 
- it's designed for humans and requires no parsing.  I don't see why 
we need to add fpm.workers.poolname.pm.dynamic, where fpm.workers is 
obvious, and poolname is in the section name.  You're left with 
pm.dynamic - which is fine.

I'm not implying it, in fact I'm downright saying *the opposite*.  It 
should be in its own fpm.ini file, using .ini syntax.  It shouldn't 
use PHP's INI subsystem since it's irrelevant to it, and we may want 
to implement special handling for certain directive names (e.g. 
includes, should we decide to implement them).

All along I was talking about the syntax, not php.ini itself.
