I think people felt that it should be part of the \d family.
Also, because we have \connect and \conninfo, you'd need to
type at least five characters before you could tab-complete,
whereas \dconfig is unique at four (you just need \dco).

Hm, I could get on board with that -- any other opinions?
(Perhaps there's an argument for omitting "override"
settings as well?)
