I would disagree.  Previously, you may have had to configure in BOTH  
conf.php and in a hook, depending on the backend.  That is a confusing  
configuration design.  Now all configuration takes place in a single  
location.

Just because it is less familiar doesn't mean it is not easy.

Post-spam actions are a user-defined activity, so this is configured  
in the preferences ('move_innocent_after_report').

You could have cloned your installation.  Or installed to a different  
PEAR directory.

These days, it really isn't the (potentially time-consuming)  
responsibility of a software project anymore to support these kind of  
"multiple-setups on a single machine", at least software projects that  
don't have vast resources.  VMs are so ubiquitous, cheap, and easy to  
setup and they accomplish precisely this.
