All,
To limit the argument here, let's please not argue about things which
people already agree on. So:
We seem to have consensus around:
A) the inadvisability of storing GUCs in a system catalog.
B) the utility of a conf.d in /etc/ which may have nothing to do with
ALTER SYSTEM SET
C) that any file for ALTER SYSTEM SET go in $PGDATA somewhere.
What we are still arguing about:
D) one-big-file vs. file-per-setting
E) whether "unsafe" settings or "restart" settings should be allowed in
ALTER SYSTEM SET.
F) whether admins need the ability to disable ALTER SYSTEM SET.
Since each of D, E and F issues are completely orthagonal to each other,
I suggest that maybe we argue them each out on their own threads? I'll
start.
