Likely not many (most choose XMLUI or JSPUI, not both).  However, if we 
were to go this route, we'd likely need to tweak some XMLUI/JSPUI code 
so that they no longer used the exact same setting in the exact same 
config file. In other words, we'd need to ensure that a duplicate 
setting in a new 'jspui.cfg' was not also being used by the XMLUI 
(instead, XMLUI would need to be potentially tweaked to only use 
settings from a xmlui.cfg file or similar)

It would make sense to start pulling out larger "chunks" of settings as 
well. SRB settings is a good candidate to pull out into an 
'storage-srb.cfg'. Packager/Crosswalk settings may be another good 
candidate to pull out into a 'packager.cfg' file.  There's likely others 
as well we could pull out.

I should also note that as we are doing this work, we should be aware 
that we likely will need modifications to our Documentation (especially 
the Configuration section of the Docs, though other areas may also be 
affected).

I've created a new "Documentation Development" space on our Wiki. This 
is an area where developers or other volunteers can start to create / 
change documentation immediately (in preparation for 1.8).  During the 
1.8 Release these docs can then be formally released:
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOCDEV/
So, as we do work to split up the dspace.cfg, please also try and help 
us update the Documentation in this DSDOCDEV space.
