I'm not 100% convinced about not having a config.inc.php but I agree 
with your idea for the moment. Do you want to split this work with me?

We'll also have to make sure that this bug
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1471501&group_id=23067&atid=377408
is fixed. Maybe Sebastian has an idea about this?

So, in libraries/config.default.php, everything starting from "MySQL 
settings" would be moved somewhere else, like in 
libraries/common.lib.php just after
$_SESSION['PMA_Config'] = new PMA_Config('./config.inc.php');
