Maybe it's time for an entire overhaul of .NET and the CLR? This is a very interesting podcast where Juval Lowy tries to explain why every class (including .NET classes) "should" be WCF services.
http://www.dotnetrocks.com/default.aspx?showNum=520 I haven't looked at it but apparently Juval has a utility that will allow you to define a POCO class which it will convert into a WCF service thus removing the need to have settings in the config file for each class.
