Bah! GUI tools still suck :)

In this case, what you needed was a decent format for the config file, a
good lint tool and some QA.

GUI tools fsck up all the time! If you don't know how things're supposed to
work and don't check them, then you don't know if they're working properly.

The real solution is having good testing suites and practices.
