I'm not sure which is the best mailing list to send this to, so forgive
me if I'm off.
I'll be glad to RFC this if there is interest.

There are several modules I've run across that require you to edit them
after you've installed them.  I consider this to be a very bad thing. 
What I'm thinking is needed, is a standard way to have a file in the
module package that contains the editable parameters.  The name of this
file should be consistent relative to the module.  The module install
system should NEVER overwrite it, but should identify when some
configurable item is needed by a new revision that isn't in the old one
and warn the user. 

I assume that this is really just another very small .pm file.

Thoughts?
