I could agree with you Dave, except Stellarium's config files - especially 0.10.x versions - are not well documented, and a simple typo crashes the program with no clue as to what is wrong.

I've tried adding comets and asteroids using examples in ssystem.ini and they don't show up. There are two different sets of parameters to choose from depending on the eccentricity and nothing to say which options are needed for the e<1 or e>=1 verisons.
