by "locking down" I mean not only one file with restricted access but one central place with full configuration. Many files is interesting for independently configuring parts, "locking down" means the server configuration is fixed, locked, no messing with upgrade here and there in many files. The thing is in one place, the server configuration is "locked down". Having one file makes it simple to see/analyze/replicate/distribute.
It was a very popular feature of BEA in production, one central place.
