Just wanted to clarify that editing the xml files directly should be
strongly discouraged. Not only can it lead to corrupting of configuration
due to a mistake but those config files are subject to change across major
versions, and we don't really publish those changes very clearly (again,
because we don't recommend editing the files in place). If the rest api
doesn't cover your use case then perhaps it's the only option, but it is
definitely a "use at own risk" one.
