Hmm, that's a good point. But what about the scenario that someone is installing and running ownCloud on a machine without having root access? A admin provided config.php would always override a config.php in the owncloud directory. that is not good. Or if you want to have several owncloud installations on the same machine? A normal user could run it from inside their normal homedirectory. And even if I have root access then I´m not sure if I want to give the apache user write accesse to /etc/owncloud/config.php I´m not sure what is the right way here.
