I certainly see the advantage of having SSL split out into another file.

I certainly see the advantage of having SSL split out into another file.
And indeed, that is the way that I would do it for my own server.  But
the default config file is really there for beginners, not for advanced
users.  Having multiple config files is bad for beginners because it
makes it difficult to answer questions like "where do I put this config
directive?"  It also makes it more difficult to move a specific configuration
from one server to another.  Finally, it is just overall more intimidating
to be faced with a bunch of files to edit, rather than one file that
controls everything.

Having said that, it does look like the overall feeling is that at least
SSL should be split out, and I won't object (strongly).
