From a
simple test I have just done, it appears that rsync does NOT use daemon

This is not entirely correct. When using rsync via SSH, you actually instantiate a single rsync server process that's bound to the I/O of the SSH connection. To demonstrate, start an rsync that will take a while, then log in to the remote server and look at the rsync process, specifically its full command line. You'll see something like:

 rsync --server --sender -vlogDtpr <blah> <blah>

So, in theory, the config file would still take effect.
