I don't really agree. I think the reason you see a number of RedHat
employees agreeing that this is important is because there are real
issues their enterprise customers want addressed that is either directly
or indirectly negatively affected by this more fundamental issue.

Might I make a suggestion to anyone considerinf "fixing" this. I would suggest the use of virtual files. So for example, program-foo which uses program-foo.conf could attempt to read/parse/saveto program-foo.conf which could be actually a virtual file serving as a front end to a system which handles everything else.
