In some cases, a user should be able to close a general purpose modal on escape keyboard click or backdrop click and sometimes he should not
Since the modal is created on app start and displayed later on demand, [config] attribute is changed between
{ ignoreBackdropClick: true, keyboard: false }
or
{ ignoreBackdropClick: false, keyboard: true }
However, the behaviour is always as set on modal creation, thus I it cannot be changed on runtime, on demand
How can I force the new [config] settings ?

You need to overwrite the config object completely in order to trigger Angular change detection. For example:
config = { backdrop: false, ignoreBackdropClick: true, keyboard: false };
updateConfig() {
    const updatedConfig = { backdrop: true, ignoreBackdropClick: false, keyboard: true };
    this.config = { ...updatedConfig };
}
Please note that the backdrop won't be updated dynamically in this case (we will take a closer look at that, but I'm not sure if it should work this way). The ignoreBackdropClick and keyboard options should be updated correctly.
