I see that as a big step backward.  As mentioned earlier in the
thread, we use an include at the end of postgresql.conf to point to a
file with any overrides from our standard configuration.  Without the
ability to do that, managing 200 clusters would be harder.
 
I would not complain if the server logged duplicates.  (That would
actually be a minor blessing, as the startup would log all our
deviations from standard -- at least if our standard had an explicit
entry.)
