Thanks for this clear statement of your objection.  I'm afraid I don't
agree.  Even though .config exists (and is even used by osstest, so I
know about it) I don't think it is as good as having it in
menuconfig.

I agree with George's comments:

| From a UI perspective, I think that’s a poor UI — enabling

| line with what people expect.

and I haven't seen good reasons (in my opinion) for diverging from
that discoverability and expectation.

So I have given my ack in the other mail.

Regards,
Ian.
