 You can't get to the Network Admin UI if you are importing a database from
 an existing site...  You have to manually update the database.

 The use case here would be mainly for development purposes, and clean
 database interop between environments.

 You have a local database where you do local development, a staging
 environment, and a production environment.  Most likely all of these
 environments will differ on these options and the only alternative is to
 manually update the database if you want to set up a new environment.  A
 way to override (just like we do with single site installs) with a config
 file would make this process a lot less painful.
