So, with the benefit of easing merging for committers, we end up with two separate files for the end users (and sysadmins) - one "example file" and one "tru config file". IMHO this sounds like complicating matters. IMHO this whole problem and the discussion about it is a bit overkill. Why not just keep it as it is? What is so fundamentally broken with the current situation that we need important, POLA-breaking fixes? Greetings, Helge
