Hi Richard, A platform independent solution would be an elegant solution.
What we do (on Windows) is having a folder on a server containing QGIS default settings (e.g. reg-files for DB-connections, Connections for web services, but also, most popular plugins, map and print composer templates). These default settings can be imported by the users by executing a simple batch-script we produced for that purpose. If that is of interest for somebody I could post the content of the .bat file... >From that starting point, colleagues can adjust the default settings to their >personal needs and preferences...

Then with a command line option you would be able to (just before reading the QSettings) actually read/write this settings file back into user settings. Thereby making it possible to for example transfer a certain setup across a class room (as long as the plugins are available in .qgis2 off cours). Would this work? Or do I miss something?
