Hi Stuart,

I havn't looked at the code but I presume that the section and
attributes are in separate dictionaries so you are proposing something
like
if name in section-dict then store there else store in attribute-dict

That of course limits the facility to only changing existing names,
not adding new ones.  Still its better than nothing, but will need
documentation.

Cheers
Lex
