Allow variables to control all sections in config files, not just appSettings and connectionString
The ability to control the appSettings and connectionString settings in config files with variables in a deployment project is great stuff, but I want more! :-)
It would be great to be able to control other sections as well.
As it stands, we've ended up with a hybrid solution consisting of variables and config file transforms; ideally, I'd like to be able to stick to one of these methods.

Would be great for us too because we're using an own NameValue section in config. So I wouldn't need so much web transformation files.

Hi Mattias
I've updated the idea header for you.
Thanks for the suggestion, by the way.

Darn it! The header should have read:
"Allow variables to control all sections in config files, not just appSettings and connectionString". Sorry about the typo! (Where's that Edit button?!)
