I'm just not convinced that not being able to ssh in to a server
and edit
some config files but rather have to figure out how to tweak the
policy-daemon-of-the-month is the user experience a large segment of "we"
wants at all. Human-editable config files are a huge strength. Using a
policy daemon may be part of the answer, but it should be able to get its
configuration from something that can be fixed with vi.
So, the entire thing boils down to "I don't like the g-conf storage
format?" (I'm honestly asking here.)
