Correct, we need to fix the problem that every typo fix in a configuration file will lead to a *.rpmnew or *.rpmsave file. And this is this whole exercise about: minimize the situations, where RPM has to create a rpmnew or rpmsave file. And not doing the opposite, mess even more around with configuration file automatically so that RPM has to create even more rpmnew and rpmsave files which will even more likely break users systems earlier than later.
Doesn't this whole subject become moot when the /usr/etc/ transition is complete??? Aren't we nearly there already? -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science.
