If there is interest in this feature I will add documentation and spec tests. The patch add the option to use multiple defaults section, as described in the haproxy documentation:
It's completely optional. Additionally if defaults are used, then the frontend and backend section are kept together in the haproxy configuration file if the frontend has the option
default_backend
or the frontend and backend are identical named. We are using multiple defaults and the improved ordering to improve the readability in our very long haproxy configuration files.
