traffic_conf

Hello happy people,

Skimming through the users@ archive, I see a lot of posts
which include the entire records.config in their post. That's
usually less than helpful.

Postfix has a tool called postconf and it's very close to
what I'm imagining. Postfix has a myriad of configuration
options, all of which come with sane defaults. Similar to ATS.

postconf allows getting and setting of individual options.
Very similar to traffic_line (-r and -s + -v).

But postconf also provides two other options that are amazingly
useful: postconf -d prints all variables=values pairs with their
default values. postconf -n prints all variables=value pairs that
have been changed from the default. Such a feature would be
invaluable for assessing a users records.config

Right now, I don't know exactly how to provide this. We could
either extend traffic_line - or provide a quick hack in Perl.

Ideas?
