I'd like to note that when you're in a configuration managed environment
like Fedora Infrastructure is (via puppet).  This is an easy and simple
thing to do.  If anything goes wrong, you either look to the logs to find
out why the file isn't there, or you look in the file to see why its
malformed.

Config files are quite nice in managed or large environments.
