But then the host keys show up as editable files in the package
configuration menu, which is (IMHO) a "Bad Thing".  Also, the ssh host keys
happen to be ascii text files...other packages may have automatically
generated local configuration files that are not plain text.

I don't think there's any getting around there are at least two types of
"configuration" data...files the user edits to configure the package, and
files the package generates automatically.  There could even be other
flavors.  Things that come immediately to mind include: dhcpd & dhclient
lease files, and indexed data-base files (like for e-mail user lists, alias
files, and similar).
