I discussed your bug report with Olaf and we came to the conclusion that
having core settings like server and socket setup in
conf-available/-enabled is the wrong approach. This setup is merely for
module setup and configuration for our own and other package
maintainer's modules.

We just can't move out every single bit of possible configuration to
such separate files, especially not core settings. Where should that
end? Especially since IPv6 is/was a Squeeze release goal and has thus to
be enabled anyway.

I see your point is legit for your personal use case, but I'm sorry, we
just can't satisfy everyone with our default configuration and
configuration files are there to be changed by the user. This is why we
are especially careful when changing them in Debian.

Do you have another idea how we could meet both of our point of views:
yours and ours (note: Lighttpd has no machine readable/writable
configuration file, e.g. like Postfix)?
