 From a mass-hosters perspective I would prefer to as few as possible 
such settings.

Settings in $TYPO3_CONF_VARS can easily be changed globally, but any EM 
configuration or action requires the same steps for every installation.

I'm not saying that there should be no such settings at all, but I would 
like to avoid them wherever it makes sense.

For example, in the "rsaauth" extension, the path for the temporary keys 
would make full sense if it becomes a TYPO3_CONF_VARS setting. I think 
it could be used by many other features too.

We had quite some trouble to roll out openid on every of our sites. What 
I finally did was to hardcode the "forceBE"-setting and apply the 
database changes to every installation through mysql-cmdline.

Thinking about this, I start dreaming of a commandline-interface for the 
extension manager... :-)
