I don't find it difficult either, but that doesn't mean I like the idea at 
all; in fact I detest XML with a passion. And the admin that comes after 
me might not understand XML even a little bit. There are too many other 
things that need doing in bacula to spend time futzing with a part that 
works. I use bacula in more than one installation, and I can say right now 
that if the config files become XML only, even if there is a fancy tool to 
edit them, I will stop using bacula. No doubt there are many that will 
find this view unreasonable, but I can't help that.
