Oh is that so?
I thought about hg as a set of command-line scripts with a defined
interface that should IMO not be dependent from any site-specific
settings.
Instead, it should be configured at install time, and after that
be completely independent from site settings.

Thanks for regarding my comments as silly.

In my sense it would be silly if that full-blown app would suffer from
or relate to site at all, tho. Apps are meant to be self-contained.
