I would hope that tools don't have to resort to reading and writing 
these config files.  Usually a management system would prefer storing 
parameters in its own database, and writing a temporary config file just 
to pass the data seems awkward.  I would much prefer to see the command 
line and monitor retain full control over every configurable parameter.
