how about:

use this convention and you don't need to configure anything.

If you want to do whatever comes to your mind you also have to configure 
it. So it combines the best of both worlds?

Configuration always is an extra step and if I like the convention why 
not use it...
If I port something from another framework, I don't need to rename 
everything I just need to configure it properly.
