Subject: Config tab "demoted" in brooklyn web-console

Hi all,

The config tab has been moved in the brooklyn web-console. It is now a 
section under the "advanced" tab.

Anyone have opinions on this?

---
This was done in https://github.com/apache/incubator-brooklyn/pull/156, 
where there was some discussion. The reason from @ahgittin was:

    "config tab demoted because i and most people i've observed don't
    use it much except in debugging -- easy to promote if that's the
    wrong call"

---
I personally found it useful, both to see the config the blueprint has 
set and also for auto-generated config (e.g. the seed(s) of a Cassandra 
cluster).

If we're not running out of space or looking too cluttered for tabs, 
then I'd prefer to promote it again.

Aled

p.s. there have been past conversations about what (if any) is the real 
difference between attributes and config; but that's a different 
conversation.
