   <description>Actual configuration files of horde are quite difficult to be edited and maintained by using a text editor because in the same file there are too much configuration line all consecutive (not grouped and/or separated by \n) and without any comments.



From the system administrator point of view, that want to maintain by hand and not using the web configuration interface, multiple separated configuration files would be really better.



The system administrator managing the application prefer to put his configuration files clean, well commented and organized and put under a version control system (like svn or cvs).



For this reason, imho, having multiple configuration files grouped by their functionality would be a really good enanchments for improving the maintenance of an horde installations.



I would suggest to have:

conf.php

conf.d/

conf.d/drivers_authentication.php

conf.d/drivers_datatree.php

conf.d/drivers_prefs.php

conf.d/drivers/etc



In this way a system administrator is allowed to maintain it&#039;s own configuration files clean and well separated.



An example of good configurations managed that way is the debian apache2 configuration mode.



Have a look on it, would be a very great improvement for the maintenance of the system.
