Hi, |

|
| 3 |
the idea of a binary registry is not the path to follow imho. All system |
| 4 |
critical settings and files should depend on as little libraries as |
| 5 |
possible and be editable directly. This is very important in case of |
| 6 |
system rescue. Putting these settings inside a database of some sort |
| 7 |
really removes much of the needed flexibility and creates a magical |
| 8 |
black box called 'system configuration' that no-one really knows and |
| 9 |
that pretty soon can only be done through dedicate tools ... very bad. |
