I was afraid that the list structure was opaque to gsettings. That does make it harder to start down that path, but isn't really a surprise. The list format looks python friendly. I was a bit worried about writing a script to use to process the changes in python for kickstart files, but given that livecd-creator and anaconda both need python, it seems pretty safe to assume python will be available where I need it.
