Ticket #242 (enhancement)

Currently, we have to add handler methods to the server programatically. With this patch, we can specify them in an ini file.

One problem is that you can't specify a method alone --- it has to be qualified by at least one package (or possibly a class).
ie:

configParam = myFunction # this should fail
configParam = mypkg.myFunctinon # this should be fine
