Hi Robin & List!
At the end of the DB-Config, we will be able to use XML based configuration files as well, so that will be a handy advantage.
Be aware that the php xml parser is still changing (there were some huge debates about it in the php dev. list two weeks before). Moreover we can't ask all the phpMyAdmin users to upgrade to a PHP 4.2.? release since lots of them are running on shared servers.

As I stated in the previous email, I was using a PHP class to get the XML functionality instead of the XML parser that is included in PHP.

DB-config is definetly an ISP level type feature. It isn't my code that needs 4.2, but rather the PHP class that I am using. It makes use of some OOP inheritance methods that are problematic in previous versions of PHP. The same fixes are needed to run some of the updated PEAR classes.
Most of the ISPs that I have seen skipped the 4.1 update set, so hopefully they will take to 4.2 instead.
