<p>Hmmm, on consideration, the whole idea of copying the global config is a bad idea, the user configs should only contain the fields they want to change, not hide the whole system config.</p>
<p>But of course just dropping the user in an empty config file is unhelpful too.   Maybe after creating the new user config we should do a <code>s/^/# /g</code>.</p>
