Honnestly I see kforge as a nice frontend to command line and I think 
that one of kforge's goal is to facilitate the project management.

If some *basic* configuration files need to be edited through ssh or 
webdav, it means I have to give some access on my box (for ssh) that I 
do not want to. If also I'm forced to use the command line for basic 
options, then what's the value of kforge ? (sounds harsh sorry...).

Before moving to kforge, I used independant instance of trac and I was 
fed up with deploying and settings instance each time I needed. When I 
discovered Kforge, I find it was worth investing in it as it would solve 
part of my problems (at least for deploying trac instance).

I agree that for some permissions or some trac settings, it should be 
set up through trac-admin command or TracAdmin plugin. But I think that 
the basic settings I ask for are really basic ones. It's non sense that 
kforge deploy an instance without setting the right urls in 
configuration file.

If you do not want to handle this issue, maybe an acceptable solution is 
to provide these plugins within kforge distribution.
