'eximconfig' was a perl script created by the previous person who
created the debian package. The script generated v3 config files,
which don't work with version 4. I have heard that the code wasn't
pretty (but I never looked for myself). As for debian, using
'debconf' is actually better than having a separate script. It's a
good thing that script passed away :-).

For society, it's probably a good thing that engineers value function
over appearance. For example, you wouldn't want engineers to build
nuclear power plants that only _look_ like they would keep all the
radiation inside.
