So we simply drop the cfg?

yes

What about sysadmins who currently have map pdftex.map map +localfonts.map

I.e. it used to be easy to make additional map files generally available.

most users will use the big map file

Should this information now be sumped into the format, too (via manipulated .ini files)?

just put it in a variable in the texmf.cnf file

Or, are there more reasons to drop the config file?

confusion is one of them Hans
