So you can really what you want with it.
In other words: - remove the configuration modules, you can do this using the GUI (Settings > Modules) and even remove the binaries from /usr/lib/enlightenment/modules/conf* - make use of Linux permissions, turn ~/.e/e/config/ read-only... you can even make use of new FS attributes to turn on immutable bits on files with "chattr +i". That should give you a safe and immutable environment. It may be the case that for some reason E is still trying to save configuration files and that may cause an error, we really do not test this case, so if you find out bugs, let us know.
