DESCRIPTION FROM UPSTREAM:
Hi, How would you feel about a GSettings backend for storing and loading configuration options? At Hypra we need to ship some config overrides targeting visually impaired users, and GSettings provides a pretty neat way of shipping vendor overrides, as well as integrating well with the DEs like GNOME or MATE. GSettings also supports runtime changes already, as well as command-line and graphical tools to read an manipulate the values. GSettings also has backends itself, and can use INI-like files, in-memory only, or RPC-based methods like dconf for storage, which allows for a wide variety of use cases. Compiz 0.9 has a GSettings backend, and although I'm not sure it's the best implementation it works fairly well, although it looks a bit over-engineered. What do you think about this? Would it be possible to add a GSettings backend, and where would you see it?
