  Yes, reading existing data should be done when possible, good hint. I had not yet invested in such data finding code, so far concentrated on the service/plugin APIs to develop some sane structures.
  
  A use-case I have in mind though is also supporting multiple instances of services. I have worked in setups with a private and public instance of same service, for keeping private/customer data separate from public/community data. So the data about services in the repo was not complete, and one would still need a UI to enter service data.
  
  But pre-filling with detected existing data is a good idea, agreed.
