That seems like a pretty bizarre idea.  The settings wouldn't be
persistent would they?  Or are you proposing this as a substitute
way of providing input for SET PERMANENT?  If so what's the value?
It seems to me that it just introduces unnecessary failure modes
(ie, server can't read file because of permissions) without any
really useful new functionality.
