In one of the lengthy messages I sent to Larry about the tcpwrappers
stuff, I rambled about the possibility of having two levels of
options parsing, one by master, the other by the specific service.
The idea was to have a "-w" option that master would intercept.
This option would enable the use of tcpwrappers for that particular
service. Though, your solution is certainly simpler, even if a bit
more manual.
