Good point. There's also an awful shortage of config parsers in the standard

Way back in the mists of time, a ConfigParserShootout was mooted and a wiki page
dedicated to looking at alternative implementations - a whole bunch of
candidates were nominated (disclosure: including one that I wrote, but also
Michael's ConfigObj) but then it never went anywhere. Here's the link to the
Wiki page:

Perhaps we should have a vote to select the one or two to include ;-)
It did go somewhere - it was discussed on Python-dev and Guido didn't
see the need to replace ConfigParser (and specifically didn't see the
need for nested sections that was at least in part the motivation for
the shootout).
