Amen,
I have found that moving between distributions almost certainly means 
that someone with a penchant for <insert gui scripting language here> 
has created a gui based config editor. So instead of knowing which file 
to edit to change the settings via cli you need to remember what the 
hell they call the gui and also the quirks of the particular interface.
