Not necessary, don't we already have regapi?
I say we could do this, for example:
cp winedefault.reg winenew.reg
cat >>winenew.reg <<EOF
[hostname_key]
blah=blah
EOF
regapi setValue <winenew.reg
rm winenew.reg
The exported/importable .reg file format is defined once and for all and
won't change.

There ought not to be many of them, and they ought not to be incompetent.
