Here's a crazy idea: XML configuration file. Would it add more
flexibility and possibilities to third party configuration tools? Would
the extra dependency on expat (or other XML library) be a big no-no?
Would making the menu file and the styles XML-based too be a good idea?

The main drawback would be making expat a permanent requirement (once
you decide to use XML you have to, you can't enable/disable it at
compilation time).

The advantage would be third party tools having a much easier job of
working with the Blackbox related preference files.
