Ismo,
I understand your proposition but as I daud, I woudl rather keep the
management of information specific to additional module outside of the
core framework.
AMD is demaing with application life cycle and is complex enough as it
is with security and multiuser requirement.
Furthermore you will need to decide-propose where your configuration
information will be packaged and how-when it will is be stored
Coming to Buxton usage model. Byxton has been created to be used by the
application directly nit to hide it behind API.
As you may have seen, the good new is that the vconf-buxton wrapper is
pregressing what should enable its rapid introduction in Tizen 3.

Dominig, thanks for your comments!
I think there is a slight misunderstanding -- I wasn't proposing
IVI-specific changes. AIL is a library for accessing the application
database, used in all Tizen profiles as far as I know. My proposition
was extending the library in all profiles to support adding arbitrary
key-values to application metadata. This mechanism could then used by
anyone for any purpose, including adding the application metadata that
ICO Homescreen is now having in private configuration files.
Buxton could be a good choice for (re-)implementing the internals of the
application database. However, I think that would be an implementation
detail only -- the current sqlite model could also be extended. I think
we need to try to maintain the API stability because AIL/AUL is used all
over and keep Buxton below the API surface. Dividing application
configuration data to all the places it is now _and_ Buxton would just
add a new component to the problem.

Ismo,
adding a mechanism which is specific to IVI into AIL is not the right move.
While I understand that is is easy and tempting, I believe that it is
important to isolate profile specific features.
My understanding (tell me if I am misunderstood your need) is something
that is designed to be covered by Boxton and so I would propose to use
that service to store your data.
Buxton should provide all the bells and whistles that you requires.
Please feel free to comment on the proposed move.
Regards
