Yes, it is true.

For the time being, when a bool/int key is changed, the D-Bus message
will be sent out directly, but the configuration is not saved until
"Close" is clicked. This will make inconsistence if the t-p is crashed
or killed.

Make sense to me, it is a little change.

I can think two ways here:

Option 1: Send key change D-Bus message and save the configuration to
disk when use change setting.

Option 2: Send key change D-Bus messages and save the configuration to
disk when use click "Close" or "OK" button.

I can see the biggest disadvantages for option #1. If the key change
(like enable/disable Evolution) is time-consuming, it would annoy, even
nightmare if user clicked the widgets time by time.

So I would like to choose option #2 for no-waste and performance
concern.

Thanks,
Halton.
