I don't think so, and the silence on the list, seems to 
confirm that. Alexandre tends to work on keepalived in 
spurts, with no much happening (at least as far as users can 
see) for long periods in between. You might want to contact 
Alexandre on the keepalived list or directly and see what he 
says. I can't imagine it would be too hard to add an include 
feature to the conf file, and it would be faster if you did 
it yourself and sent in the patches than wait for Alexandre.

Let's see if I understand what you want. You want clients to 
ssh to an IP in 213.160.0.0/16 be forwarded to a realserver 
at 192.168.1.2? If so, this is usually done with fwmarks. 
See if keepalived supports fwmarks.
