Well for most people putting important files under
configuration control does not constitute being "draconian"
but in any case of course you have a backup of this file.

So yes, indeed it is an annoyance to have to go and fix
the installation, by going to the backup, and we will
indeed try to fix this in a future release. Meanwhile,
we will add some documentation to warn (the rather small
number of) people who modify the site-start file that they
will have to do an extra simple manual step for now.
