Regarding making Pekko automatically handle Akka configuration, I have doubts as to whether this feature provides as much benefit as is implied. Configuration tends to be static and I have the impression that a far nicer solution to the problem would be to write a script that generates any existing akka config to pekko config rather than making pekko handle akka config
