Hi Joe,

The reason we chose not to use setup.cfg is because nested '.bandit' or 'setup.cfg' files mess us up. We didn't want to get into complicated hierarchy rules, and sometimes projects have other projects in subdirectories. We thought having this file called '.bandit' implies more intent to use this just for Bandit and so we can safely ignore other files like 'setup.cfg'.

Does this make sense?
