How about a way to make everybody happy? Store the config in the 
database to make it easy to manipulate in Web pages and the like - I do 
think this would be a nice-to-have. Use an export and import function to 
text files - this will address the issues listed in the Wiki. Obviously, 
the export should be automatic after each change, and the import should 
be manual.
