I argued for such a rule, but others pointed out examples where this is
not always/generally a good idea, so the proposal did not have the
support to pass.
Were the examples for certificate/ssh keys only? I don't really meant
these with "config files". Are there any arguments against owning
config files but certifcates/ssh keys?
