I don't know anything about dpkg-reconfigure, so I can't really comment on this.

But one thing I really do like about gentoo is that I *can* go modify
configuration files directly, without worrying about some distribution
tool clobbering my changes, or choking on something it wasn't setup to
deal with.  This is one of the things that drove me from SuSE.  I
would really object to some kind of "configuration file configurator"
app.

Agree wholeheartedly.

I want to learn and use Linux (well, Gentoo Linux :-) )- not some distribution-dependent GUI(s).
