I know and it has been misleading for ages.

I probably could, but then I hardly ever use lrcfg. I would like the
LEAF boxes to be more user friendly, not for myself but for others.
Developers are notoriously bad at user friendlyness, because they don't
need it.

So everything can remain as is, but that does not make the LEAF software
any better. From my past experience in product management and support it
is always worth to make software user friendly. If you think that the
lrcfg menu is adapted to the year 2016, please rethink.
