No such tool is feasible.  It would have to have some sort of "magic"
that allows it to find and edit the configuration of an arbitrary
number of subsystems and applications, including ones that aren't even
shipped with Solaris.

Again, I refer you to the ipge case (2004/782).  We've been over this
ground before.
