I tend to shy away from UI config file
generators becuase I find myself spending more time going through their
menus checking and unchecking things and reading help as to what each
checkbox does than if I would just copy and paste my changes.
True. I guess it depends on the developer and how inuitive the gui is. The one argument made for the gui is that you don't need to worry about violating the DTD with cut and paste errors, which I am prone to make. To each his own on this one.
Are you wanting a UI
for the config files or something that will auto-generate a Java class
to interact with the config files?
I can see this as being useful for getting started. I know there's a Perl script that's been mentioned by Clinton that will do some this. I would think it will still require quite a bit of manual editing after generation though (maybe not so much work for domain objects but for DAOs).
I personally think the most useful feature would be to test the SQL inside your SQL maps to see if it returned the desired object.

straight forward to configure as is. I just take an existing file and
modify it for a new project. I tend to shy away from UI config file
