Yet an even better reason (no X) for my vote for a menuconfig-like
system. I sometimes config, start, and stop mol exclusively from afar
through ssh. Although I can edit the config file in emacs just fine
thru ssh, a menu-based config program would be nice.
Also, I note that a mol installation from build always writes over
the molrc file. There is no automatic 'save old config' step, like
there might be in an rpm install. I always have to save the old one,
and swap them out. If I forget to do this, I have to go through it
again by hand...
