Hi John -- thanks for the explanation. I wasn't suggesting another file the user would maintain, but instead a default set of configs I could attach to a cloud when I'm calling 'add-cloud'.
It probably makes more sense in the case of MAAS where at least the bootstrap timeout often needs to be altered, as well as proxy settings (at a typical customer site). Thinking a bit further -- having a shared controller with users helps. But, in the case of MAAS, a PoC user (first time experience) would still struggle with it, I think. Especially dedicating a machine to a controller in their rack, and not seeing a way around it easily (abuse the admin model is the current answer).
