It would be more useful to have this discussion if you defined what
you meant by "FreeBSD configuration" in more detail. You might also
want to search the archives first, there is a lot of discussion about
various proposals in this area, all of which end up getting shot down
because they don't offer sufficient added value to justify the pain of
the change.
