I guess it would have to be done via SMB. Probably not very
practicable. Anyway, it seems to me most people (other than testers) are
on one platform or the other so the need for remote config manager
utilities wouldn't warrant the work.

No, none.

Unfortunately it's not optional. FbConfigMgr just aborts at startup if it
doesn't find a registry key matching the one that's hard-coded in the
program. (Same as the ServerMgr CPL, which makes it currently unusable as
well)
