I worry here that we'll generate a lot of talks by this like:

- Hey! What have you done with web ui? How should I configure CouchDB now?
- We removed Config from Fauxton as it doesn't fits well cluster environment.
- But I don't need a cluster and bag of problems it brings on!
- Sorry, 2.0 is not friendly for simple setups...

But still being able to just read per-node config via Fauxton is a
good idea. And even for clusters, it makes a sense: it gives the way
to put some specific node into maintenance mode right from Fauxton
(while there is no any cluster management page).
