Comment 1 for bug 996401

'bzr config' does not expand the values displayed.

'bzr config <option>' tries to expand the value to present what bzr will use.

Since templates (rightly) use options that come from outside the config files, this fails.

I'm not quite sure what to do about that... suggestions ?

On one hand, the behaviour is sound, 'this' can't be expanded so the error is "correct".

On the other hand, one could imagine an additional command-line switch to explicitly control the expansion.
