Ok, so we need to use something new anyway, cfg works out fine  for me, we just should
try to remember using that if a move like this needs to be done for some other API
subtree.

Moving then back again just for the sake of purity seems not the best argument, so
I'd rather live with config and cfg then than working through the churn of moving
back again.
