Christian Schneider resolved KARAF-888.
---------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

I think this is resolved with the new config admin and file install versions that do the persistence themselves.

> Up to now, Karaf uses Felix FileInstall to poll files in the etc folder and load the properties containing in the files (the files respect the pid.cfg format) in the ConfigAdmin service.
> On the other hand, Karaf manipulate ConfigAdmin via the config:* commands and is able to flush back the properties in the files in this commands.
> I propose two improvements around ConfigAdmin:
> - we could create a Karaf Config Service on top of ConfigAdmin to be able to choose and change the storage backend of configuration. For instance, replace/concats the etc folder with a JDBC or LDAP backend. We could implement something similar to JAAS with a kind of ConfigModule.
> - the config:* commands shouldn't be responsible to writing the files. The config:* commands could use the Karaf Config Service. The Karaf Config Service will be responsible to updating the ConfigAdmin service, and flush the changes to the storage backend.
