      As part of WT-15168, we identified that a script might be able to prevent the case where a config entry persisted to metadata is removed. This case is problematic because we then won't be able to read a DB from disk where this entry is missing.

      The hard part is identifying which configs are persisted – some help from api_data.py might be necessary, or perhaps by creating a test database and using a metadata cursor to go over the config.
