"--configure --source-property evolutionsource/type/...=bar scheduleworld
addresssbook"

somewhat unexpectedly modifies the property for *all* peers in the @default
context.

There were several suggestions for avoiding this pitfall. Reject such changes
unless
a) a -f/--force option is given, or
b) there is only one peer in the context or
c) the <config> names a context

b) is useful for casual users with only one peer. But they don't learn about
the concept of SyncEvolution.

Therefore the proposal in this issue is to add immediate feedback about the
changes made to a configuration, for example like this (suggested by Matthijs
Kooijman):

    Operating on context "default"
    Setting property "evolutionsource" to "foo" for source "addressbook"
    Setting property "sync" to "two-way" for source "addressbook" and peer
"scheduleworld"
    Setting property "syncURL" to "http://foo"; for peer "scheduleworld"
