Seems like Mending Wall is just keeping all configs in another directory and hot swapping them as needed by literally deleting and copying them from the target directories.
I figured it would be fine swapping, but still a pain to have config break during a changeover. Would be interesting to try and setup a symlink layer for all DE configuration that you could change at will. That way no files actually need to be modified during a swap
