In fact I had more stored options in my first package version but then I decided that the necessary options for the server should be enough (a server should be started automatically and at reboots and whatever) but that on the client side the use cases are just to diverse (automatic vs. manual start, same vs. different domains, which nameserver, ...) that it's not worth the hassle. At least for my personal use an alias or a self-writtten one-line wrapper script would be enough. I see the point of your proposal but I'm a bit reluctant about (and if: how) implementing it at the moment.
