   > Just wondering @tunix - where the idea that different components should 
have different configuration came from? Is this something implied? Or something 
that you found in the documentation? Should we make it very explicit in our 
documentation that you are not supposed to selectively set some configuration 
parameters on some components only?
   
   I'm new to Airflow and I haven't seen an explicit part within the docs that 
says "all configuration must be shared between airflow components". In fact, 
all configuration keys are prefixed with some naming scheme which led me to 
think that some are common, some are for webserver etc... I personally don't 
like to have common configuration because changing a single setting requires a 
change in all components (hence restart) but I get that this is intentional for 
Airflow. I think this can be better communicated throughout the docs.
