I have a solution that needs modifications to web.config to work (Enterprise 
Library Logging Application Block and a WCF Client configuration). The solution 
is scoped to a site collection.

I have found two possible methods for doing this with feature installation / 
activation - creating a supplemental web.config or using 
SPWebConfigModification in a feature receiver.

Of these options, the supplemental web.config will be added to all web 
applications, not just the one/s that the feature is installed / activated on. 
Using SPWebConfigModification has led to being able to add entries but not 
remove them (discussed on SharePoint Overflow - 
http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/60468/web-config-entries-not-being-removed-during-feature-deactivation).

So far, I'm left with either of these options as is, or making manual 
modifications each time I deploy the feature to a sith collection within a new 
web application (not desirable).

So, what techniques are people using to modify web.config, what problems have 
occurred for them and how are they being fixed?

Cheers
Mike
