I have somewhat mixed feelings about this. I don't really like the
python bindings diverging from the C library.  It's also not clear it's
worth supporting a new API entry (since e.g. if this goes in it also
needs a test) to save the python client one line of code. On the
positive side I can see there is arguably a missing abstraction on the
library side, as those particular config items are special.
