I see, fine we agree on the approach, since this is exactly what I did  
to provide the patch attached to this report: I took the following  
kolab patch for turba as the example, and did *not* find a  
corresponting code block in ingo-h3-1.2.3, so I thought it might be  
helpful to file the patch for ingo/config/backends.php.

If you consider the patch as futile we would be glad for a hint as how  
to choose an alternative approach to a conf.d-style solution in this  
case. If you consider this patch as obsolete, feel free to close this  
bug as invalid.
