This is currently working as intended even though it may not seem so. There may 
be an update to fix this but in the meantime you can just copy an existing 
Configuration file and edit it. The only thing you need to change is the 
Analytics tracking ID value.

For example, in the configuration JOSN file you'll see an entry like:
 "services": {
        "analytics_service": {
          "status": 2,
          "analytics_property": {
            "tracking_id": "UA-XXXXX-YY"
          }
        },

Replace the UA-XXXXX-YY value with the property ID (for the GA Account) you 
want to use. You can use the Account Explorer to find the correct property ID:

Note that Tracking ID and Property ID mean the same thing.
