Because config file is something you can edit remotely and uniformly
through the shell script without resolving to mysqladmin, sqliteadmin
or whatever admin you need to access you DB. Even trac-admin is not
that intuitive as plain text file. In addition, text file
configuration can be shared among various utility applications - not
necessary written in Python. You may make an emergency backup of your
config even if Python on server get lost or your DB failed.
