This middleware redirects the request for yoursite.com/feed/whatever/onefeed to your feedburner onefeed feed.

Having FEEDBURNER = ('SomeName', ('blog', 'comments', 'tag1')) will use the feedburner feeds at http://feedproxy.google.com/SomeName/blog http://feedproxy.google.com/SomeName/comments http://feedproxy.google.com/SomeName/tag/tag1

you can add more tags, or even intersection and union of them the same way

(thanks to piranha for the idea of a middleware)

Update: now it works for tags as well
