Indeed. This is a common problem, actually. There are many features we
add in each release cycle that will not be obvious on anything but fresh
installs. This holds true for both server and desktop software and is
rather unfortunate in both cases. I agree with seb128, though. Messing
about with user's configuration files is error prone and frowned upon.
I'm not sure how to handle it instead, though.
