Nop, the trickiest part is to have a configuration policy beyond the basic IT packaging.  I'm using these variables mainly to work with oracle and other in-house apps where things like the user_account_name are central, I would dread to have a week long fix event after our users would have (rightfully from their point of view) checked this box.
