Put another way, the comments in the description about where these config options come from seem too important leave buried in the git history. They are important to understanding what it is for. I know this the other configs do not have big header comments. However the existing configs are closer to self-describing. debug.config simply does not explain what the file does in the way xen.config can! People will surely want to add their "favourite" debug options[1] and those contributors would benefit from clues on what the configs here are intended for. > +# Keep alphabetically sorted. This results in 119 line file that is more-or-less impossible to comment. It alphabetic really the best way to maintain something containing so much subjective judgement?
