First starting and closing the IDE creates only a few configs. Like the
environmentoptions.xml.  (If not, then there is a bug)
There are no useful values, because the IDE only saves differences to the
defaults. At the moment the xml config units also saves empty parent nodes,
so the config files contain some unneeded nodes. This is a ToDo.

To create the secondary configs, the admin can do:
Start the IDE as a user, setup up some things and close the IDE.
Use a xml or text editor and delete what you don't need.
Copy the files to the secondary config directory (Probably only
environmentoptions.xml).
