We can definitely consider that. But I feel its a lot of config and can be error prone. For instance, source-destination field mapping configs might be complex and have various issues like data type mismatches, typos in field names etc and a user interface is better suited to guide you through the entire process.

But I see value in exporting the config to a github repo after the pipeline is created and thereafter future edits can be done via the github repo. Does that make sense?
