I agree.
>From a general perspective I still like to add some basic command line
tool, which can be used for queries or simple manipulations. Here it also
would be less a problem to add experimental or distribution specific
functionality instead of overloading conf.c.
At some point I even had script bindings (via swig), so one could do even
weirder stuff.
