        You may want to consider using tftp/rcp/whatnot loaded
files for this.

        As it loads [most if not all depending on the config length] all
of the config then parses it promptly.

        this will prevent leakage in rare cases.

This way, the neighbor has much less time to come up without filters since
we're immediately putting it in admin idle after naming it.

It's not as bad as it sounds though - IOS waits for 30 seconds after the 
"neighbor w.x.y.z remote-as 123" before trying to bring the sessions up - 
giving you time to complete the configuration. 30 seconds always seems 
long enough for a manual configuration (unless the phone rings after the 
first line), so an automatic configuration should be fine.
