Would it be that hard to convert to a sane setup?

I could either spend two or three days ripping out all of the configuration code which writes to that file and replace it with a standard configuration set up, find a module on the CPAN which implements this or I could reinvent the wheel.
And then Ovid wrote again:
That config file is autogenerated. As mentioned in my post, it would take me two or three days (I hope) to rip out everything which writes to that file and replace it. Instead, I hacked a solution in a couple of hours.
Your suggestion (or something very close) has already been made twice by others after it was preempted by the original node, and was then refuted once more in replies.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
