I think there's a difference between multiple subsequent assignments inside a plain config or inside one section: <database mydb> enabled false blah blah enabled true </database> which probably should work as you describe, and multiple subsequently matched sections: <database mydb> enabled false blah blah </database> <database mydb> enabled true blah blah </database> which IMO should raise an error, as it's likely some copy-paste error (database name pattern was not changed after copying).
