There are too many administration settings like this. Putting them into helm chart will make it difficult to maintain. I'd suggest to automate setup of such settings via restful api.

This goes against IaC, which after getting a taste of it I consider the only proper way forward to create reliable, maintainable infrastructure.

If all settings could be configured via environment variable that would also work, without bloating the chart :)

Without a solution to this, we cannot properly consider this otherwise promising software for enterprise use (which upon success would make substantial financial resources available to you as well)
