Sorry, probably I'm just an old style Unix admin, but I don't like at all to be forced to use any kind of program different from an editor to do a server configuration. That's a major strenght of an Unix system, and giving it away is very bad. I understand that in some case it will be needed, what I don't agree is forcing this choice for all the cases.
