Comment (by danielluke):

 You should reconsider your stance since blowing out the user configuration
 on upgrades is unexpected behavior and we consider it a bug for every
 other port whenever it's been discussed on the mailing list. Even if both
 strategies are roughly equivalent (I'd argue that they aren't), the fact
 that other ports all use one method should make it the preferred option.
