That was news to me. Sounds good with a clarifying patch.
Maybe the commenting out is just e making big changes and is is not needed for small incremental initial changes to the config.
I will try to look into nano and see if I can figure out how to patch it.
I think the manual should guide new users to a s little painful experience as possible. I will try building the installer and test it out as this would potentially take us a big step forward.
