Version 1.0.0 new config style is a major downgrade

[laurynas-karvelis]

Hi,

I've been using qutebrowser for quite a while now. Been truly loving it's config file, how informative and flexible it is. Using the new qute://settings config subsystem seems like author completely forgot the main idea of this project. It's vim-style browsing experience, hence moving from plain file style config to qute://settings just oddly reminds me of Chrome.

Please bring back the simple plain file-only config. Qutebrowser has it's niche, please don't ruin it to be yet another normie browser just for the sake of it. This is a big deal for me.

I hope my prayers will be heard. Cheers!

Huh? qute://settings has been around for three years (before the first release), but nobody forces you to use it, neither before the change, nor after it. Please take a look at the configuration docs.
