The control panel code already extends the profile in this way; the data from control panel entries are saved into the profile on change and loaded from it at startup. So, we're most of the way there already. We don't have a UI for the arbitrary keystore you mention, though, and loading entries from the profile is done manually in profile.py: we pull out key-value pairs that we're interested in, instead of just throwing every entry into the profile directly. I think we should switch over to importing every key-value pair we find into the running profile, as you suggest. - Chris. -- Chris Ball <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Sugar mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar
