Or have a fixed config file. The sensord.cgi file (which reads the RRD
file) is normally fixed, so that this would make sense. If there are
new sensors, they would simply be ignored (until the user regenerates
or rewrites the config file and sensord.cgi). If some sensors are no
longer supported, one would simply get missing values (NaN?) in the
RRD file.
