It should at least not be some X app. As fart as I'm concerned, it could even
be some curses console app.
Or such a curses app could be one of the front ends.

It very much depends on which kind of data you are referring to.
A lot of the configuration data already is stored somewhere (/etc).
Some databases already are readily available (ldap?)
My point, be carefull not tu build the n-th new database backend.
At first sight, I would be inclined to have a look at what can be stored in the
Samba 4 ldap backend.
Tools just would need to
- interface with that ldap backend, for easy maintenance
- services connect to that ldap backend to implement the settings (think
something like landscape client?)
