Well, IMHO, more software should start adding native support for reading
the config from LDAP. If you have used autofs with automount maps in
LDAP, you will see why ... imagine never having to configure a mail
server (say 5% of your users want a local smtp server on their box in
your large company)

Only if their method of working from a template is taken.

Using libconf (which will preserve changes made by any other tool) would
be better.

AFAIK the kolab server package provides some of this functionality. I
will try and get at least one web-based sieve client in, and was also
looking at a kio_sieve package I saw somewhere.
