haha, I can go on lengthy rants about every single configuration management system that I have used.
My dream configuration system should revert to default when the config is removed (keeping data). Have a simple/easy user interface. Have maintained modules with sane defaults for the 500 most common server software. I would rather there be no module than an abandoned one with unsafe defaults, that way it is clear that I would have to maintain my own if I want to use that particular piece of software. Performant, it really shouldn't take more than a few minutes to apply a config change. No more than 30 min for initial run.
