Very similar to Microsoft... Won't you say? In case you missed it, existing configuration (if it was properly marked, many of our current init scripts do NOT mark them as %config) will be saved when the package drops the %config attribute for the init script. Yes, future configuration should go elsewhere, and that is all in documentation.
