  1. What's the feature?
    Update for generic DNS Updater. In my imagination, that you can enter a url in the config which is filled with the necessary parameters. For example:

https://dyndns-updater.com/dyn.php?user=&password=&ip=

or something like that, so that anyone can maybe use his selfhosted dyndns server .

  1. Extra information?

I'm thinking of a new provider with the json settings:

{
  "url": "https://dyndns-updater.com/dyn.php?user=a&password=b",
  "ipv4key": "myip4",
  "ipv6key": "myip6",
}

The url contains everything (user/password/token/etc.) that is static, the ipv4key/ipv6key are the url query parameter keys to use for the ipv4/ipv6 addresses. For example &myip4=1.2.3.4.

What do you think? Any extra fields or problems with this format?
