Deleted my previous comment as no-feature-related.

Current UI and HUD files are read only once - at their's initialization. So, 
that won't 
give us any benefit - only if we will change servers/games very often without 
quitting 
the game.
As well as configs, since they read at only the begging and by exec command.

I set the priority back to medium.

I mark the issue as WontFix due to no actual reason for doing it.
Players and admins are happy to modify text configuration files in external 
editors
(Q3 console isn't much of fun to do it). And benefit from reading/writing 
configs in
binary mode is only in speed improvement during first loading. And that benefit 
is
very small.
So, WontFix.
Objections are welcome, if any.
