To Redhat people. This sysconfig madness is _not_ what I'd call clean on
any system, and linuxconf has a tendency to overcomplicate things. I'd say
the approach is _bad_: if you want something completely transparent, don't
let me mess with files in /etc/sysconfig at all - don't even keep files in
there. Readable means a unix-wide rc script system, and if we need a
better solution, it'd well be a _much_ better solution.
