Resurrecting this topic because it’s exactly on point for my question.

The UI lets us modify within the constraints built in the settings file.

I have a need to be able to modify those constraints, enabling me to set a value in the UI outside of the current min:max. Has anyone constructed a preferred mechanism for this? The one that springs to mind is to modify containers/app.yml and overwrite a file copy of site\_settings.yml in the guest. Can anyone improve on that?
