Summary: Verbose save-config

Initial Comment:
The save-config utility _must_ be verbose. Otherwise, the 
whole idea of security based on the RO media is a bluff. 
Indeed, if an intruder managed to alter config files after the 
last reboot but before admin makes his own changes, 
everything will be saved - both the wanted changes and the 
cracking stuff. So, save-config should list all the files 
changed as compared to the etc.tar.gz contents on the 
floppy and ask a confirmation to commit all of them (or, 
ideally, allow to select the files from the list).
