That sounds awful... as a user, I'm pretty sure that would fill me with
rage.  It seems like the app should only operate on the user's ~/.drirc.
 Having an "import from /etc/drirc" button seems like the right answer.
 Forcing it on people is never right. :(

I've never even seen the app... where is it maintained?
