Hi Manoj,

I don't actually see anything in current policy that mandates the
reading that configuration files are "any file that someone may wish to
edit". This is generally good sense, but there may be other factors
(such as the cost of debugging a transition path for the file, and the
impending freeze); so I don't really think this is release-critical, and
I also don't think it's a policy violation, strictly speaking.
