Yeah, I stopped using binary config files a long time ago. I think I've been using the same config file for SMs since 3.2.2, and I haven't seen any issues with it. There was a change at one point that caused the old config files to completely fail, but that might've been when I was still using binary.
I'm pretty sure the browser not being able to login thing goes back to 3.4.1, it's annoying, but it's really not that big of a deal... interestingly, if you go from something really old, like 2.4.5, it doesn't happen.
