Answer 1

In most cases you do not need xdebug on CLI mode. If this is acceptable for you than you can configure cli and cgi differently.

So if you make php-cli.ini and conf-cli.d near exiting php.ini file than you can configure cli and cgi differently (for cgi it would be php.ini and conf.d). Just do not put xdebug.ini into conf-cli.d.
