The appeal is huge for a huge number of people. It's an opinionated web server. I've used nginx for probably 6-7 years, and not once have I done something I'd consider that special (I've setup fpm, passenger, gzipping of content, TLS, regenerating my DH param, etc).

Every single thing I've done, could be implemented in an opinionated away by the web server. I'd love to just say "php" and have it do the right thing.

In fact, I'd go as far as to say, it would be amazing if I could just say "proxy ____ drupal" instead of php, and it'll add the drupal rules as well.
