I think the point David is making (and I hope I'm not misquoting ;-) ) is that you could potentially
have two people trying to change the same system settings - a consultant/system integrator, and an
admin or super user.

I agree with your view - having two paths to file modification can lead
to problems. The question
is, how can we maintain configuration file integrity and still make it
easier for a newcomer to
configure their system? And, in a small shop/single administrator
setting, is it even an issue?
