Right, I hadn't thought of that when I made my original post but it makes

Might be useful for someone who wants to override a system setting for
several CWD file sets. Anyway I think it's best not to remove it since it

I think that might cause more problems than it solved with people wondering
why a config option was "magically" set.

Yup, that's my conclusion.
