Have you tried contacting the author of Config::IniFiles to see if you can collaborate 
on improving Config::IniFiles rather than release another module that's so similar?  
I'm not trying to put down your effort, but I think it'd be great if we can 
consolidate features/improvements into fewer modules rather than increase the clutter 
that's on CPAN.  I'd rather use a larger, slower Config::IniFiles than use both 
Config::IniFiles and Config::DynaConf to give me the functionality I need.

Also, aren't the security features kind of a red herring?  Won't one still potentially 
have write access to the config file?  I just don't see how leaving out functionality 
in the module to write to that file really be that advantageous if one's concerned 
about security.
